Cyber security has been the greatest threat in the modern world. Many organizations have laid out measure to which they can eradicate this menace. As such, organizations that attempt to maintain a sense of static peace and orderly are fooling themselves into false senses of security. This is the main reason why many of the enterprises adopt the multilayered cyber security. The authors for the book, “Managing Cyber-security resources” tries to identify the financial effect Cyber Security has on the financial status of a company. Moreover, it gives out solutions and how a company can do so as to reduce the impact of cyber-crimes. Several financial methods with risk measurements as a basis have also been adapted for security to provide decision makers with tools to manage security efficiently from a business perspective. For example return on security investment and the methods presented in. Although risk is well defined and practical for decision making, it is often difficult to calculate priorities to be pointed out. This article will be of great importance in research of the impact of mobile devices on Cyber-security, because it will list on how the mobile phones aid the possibility of a cyber-crime therefore affecting the financial status of a company. Be sure you discuss the strengths and weaknesses you found in the source. Think too how to be as brief as possible in the annotation.

It only takes a few minutes for our car, medical device; employer’s HVAC system can be hacked. All this can be aided especially when the mobile device is connected with all the above devices because the mobile phone may have flaws on the security. Most consumers of digital technology are often familiar with headline- making hacks and breaches but lack a complete understanding on how all these happen or if they have been professionally or personally compromised. < consider just starting directly with the info on the source itself. Remember the annotated bib can be used to refer back to in order to recall what each source contains – hence the reason it should be brief and concise. In Cyber-security in Our Digital Lives, twelve experts provide much-needed clarification on the technology behind our daily digital interactions. They explain such things as supply chain, Internet of Things, social media, cloud computing, mobile devices, the C-Suite, social engineering, and legal confidentially. Then, they discuss very real vulnerabilities, make suggestions about what can be done to enhance security, and offer recommendations for best practices. This book is very important in researching impacts of mobile devices on cyber-security because it help us understands on how cybercrimes are mastermind through our mobile devices and the recommendations on how we can reduce the vulnerability. Specifically mention how you might use the source. Be sure to address the strengths and weaknesses you found as well.

Over the years, early detection of cyber-attacks has been very difficult because the attackers have new ways of attacking our devices. Although there are advanced monitoring devices, sophisticated attackers can survive from being detected to up to 200 days in the system. This article describes a novel, cognitive framework that assists a security analyst by exploiting the power of semantically rich knowledge representation and reasoning with machine learning techniques. This paper describes a novel, cognitive framework that assists a security analyst by exploiting the power of semantically rich knowledge representation and reasoning with machine learning techniques. Our Cognitive Cyber-security system ingests information from textual sources, and various agents representing host and network-based sensors, and represents this information in a knowledge graph. This graph uses terms from an extended version of the Unified Cybersecurity Ontology. The system reasons over the knowledge graph to derive better actionable intelligence to security administrators, thus decreasing their cognitive load and increasing their confidence in the system. This article provides us with various way in which we can be able to detect cyber-attacks in our system. Will you use the source? What did you see as the strengths and weaknesses?

Cyber-security systems, which protect networks and computers against cyber-attacks, are becoming common due to increasing threats and government regulation. At the same time, the enormous amount of data gathered by cyber-security systems poses a serious threat to the privacy of the people protected by those systems. To ground this threat, we survey common and novel cyber-security technologies and analyze them according to the potential for privacy invasion. <Be sure not to offer personal ideas – you can just begin with the authors’ focus. The authors suggest taxonomy for privacy risks assessment of information security technologies, based on the level of data exposure, the level of identification of individual users, the data sensitivity and the user control over the monitoring, and collection and analysis of the data. We discuss our results in light of the recent technological trends and suggest several new directions for making these mechanisms more privacy-aware. The article is important because it is able to list and give recommendations on the privacy implications of cyber-security systems What conclusions did the authors discover? What did you see as the strengths and weaknesses? Will you use this source and how?

Smartphones are becoming a vehicle to provide an efficient and convenient way to access, find and share information; however, the availability of this information has caused an increase in cyber-attacks. Currently, cyber threats range from Trojans and viruses to botnets and toolkits. Presently, 96% of smartphones do not have pre-installed security software. This lack in security is an opportunity for malicious cyber attackers to hack into the various devices that are popular (i.e. Android, iPhone and Blackberry). Traditional security software found in personal computers (PCs), such as firewalls, antivirus, and encryption, is not currently available in smartphones. Moreover, smartphones are even more vulnerable than personal computers because more people are using smartphones to do personal tasks. Nowadays, smartphone users can email, use social networking applications (Facebook and Twitter), buy and download various applications and shop. Furthermore, users can now conduct monetary transactions, such as buying goods, redeeming coupons and tickets, banking and processing point-of-sale payments. Monetary transactions are especially attractive to cyber attackers because they can gain access to bank account information after hacking a user’s smartphone. Lastly, smartphones are small and are easy to carry anywhere. Unfortunately, the convenience of using smartphones to do personal task is the loophole cyber attackers need to gain access to personal data. Thus, this paper examines the importance of developing a national security policy created for mobile devices in order to protect sensitive, personal data Be sure you are clear that the ideas in this annotation are from the source and discuss what the author studied and the conclusions that were drawn. Discuss as well the areas you found to be well done as well as any areas in need of improvement in the source. Identify if you will use the source in your reserach.
