Learning Objectives and Outcomes
♣ Select appropriate security controls for a given scenario.
Assignment Requirements
You are an employee for a health care organization—I Care. I Care has recently installed five Windows Server 2012 machines. These file servers are for application and file sharing as your working organization has grown threefold in just two years. Using your risk management skills and your research on NIST templates, list five to seven controls that could be placed on a file server. Be sure to provide an explanation for each control you recommend. Also, explain how this would or would not reduce risk.
Summarize your thoughts in a Word document and submit it to your instructor.
Participate in this discussion to engage in a meaningful debate regarding your choices of security controls as part of the risk management process. You must defend your choices with valid rationale.
