UNFO traditionally has been a brick-and-mortar retailer, and the management has experiences of associated business risks such as employee theft and shoplifting. However, as the organization moves into the e-commerce model, new risks will be introduced to the organization. As the junior information security analyst, it will be your role to summarize the business impact of these new risks, the motivating factors that one may have to exploit vulnerabilities, and how the risks can be mitigated.
