Security Assessment Tool

Security Assessment Tool

Conduct Internet research on your selection for a security assessment tool. You will need to access, review, and determine if the tool can be used for the project. It is recommended to provide two options to compare the features, pricing, compatibility, and functionality.

This assignment builds upon your previous assignment in Unit 3, which covered the cyber security framework, so the chosen security assessment tool(s) should be based on your choice of industries: healthcare.

Requirements for this checklist include the following.

 Include a title page containing the company name and your name.

 Download and install your selection of security assessment tool onto your computer system.

 Run your assessment tool, and provide a screenshot of the audit scan in your document.

 Select at least three vulnerabilities, and create a risk assessment matrix that shows the impact (low, medium, or high) of each vulnerability.

 Explain what preventive measures you should take for the selected vulnerabilities.

 Include a reference page containing at least three references.

Your security assessment tool must be at least one page in length, not including the title page and references page. This assignment will be added to your outline to produce a completed project at the end of the course. Adhere to APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment.
