Competency 2 Reflection on IT Network Risks
BMIS 520 - IT Infrastructure
Liberty University
Network Risk Assessment
Risks exist in everything, IT networks and infrastructure are no exception. The most severe
risk to any network are the users themselves. When we talk about the people who are using
the networks that we create and govern, we instill a significant amount of trust in them to
engage in good security practices. However, this also means that they are susceptible to
manipulation through phishing and vishing and other types of social engineering attack.
These are also the most dificult types of attack to prevent for any organization,
subsequently making them a massive risk as well. Most organization utilize tools like tagging
external emails, and blocking social websites and content as a means to help mitigate the
risk. However the best way to mitigate this risk will always be user education on good
security practices. Another significant risk for many networks are user input, this could be
searching in a search bar, or uploading files and assignments. This is were file validation and
query sanitation become important. These types of attack are very simple to execute when
proper sanitation and validation are not occurring. In the past it has been possible for
attackers to inject entire programs via search bars and upload malware that is executed by
the system when it opened. The range and types of attacks on company networks increases
every day, requiring out network infrastructure to be ever evolving to combat and mitigate
these risks.
Legal and Ethical Concerns for Big Data
Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.
What happens when a business that collecting a large about of data, fails to protect and
secure all the data they have accumulated. April 20, 2022 Baptist Medical Center (San
Antonio, Texas) discovered that they had been in the target of a successful malware attack.
The potentially compromised data was expansive, covering PII data such as names, birth
dates, and social security numbers as well as Personal Health Information (PHI) such as
diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically
regulated in the United States through HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act), breaches such as the event described could result in significant fines.
Beyond the financial and legal repercussions it is likely over a million people could have
been impacted by this breach, resulting in an increased risk of identity fraud and theft for
the remainder of their lives. The information that businesses and institutions keep on each
and every one of us should be protected with the upmost care and nothing more than
absolutely necessary should be stored.

secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

What happens when a business that collecting a large about of data, fails to protect and

The potentially compromised data was expansive, covering PII data such as names, birth

diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically
regulated in the United States through HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and

Beyond the financial and legal repercussions it is likely over a million people could have
been impacted by this breach, resulting in an increased risk of identity fraud and theft for
the remainder of their lives. The information that businesses and institutions keep on each
and every one of us should be protected with the upmost care and nothing more than
absolutely necessary should be stored.
Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

secure all the data they have accumulated. April 20, 2022 Baptist Medical Center (San
Antonio, Texas) discovered that they had been in the target of a successful malware attack.
The potentially compromised data was expansive, covering PII data such as names, birth
dates, and social security numbers as well as Personal Health Information (PHI) such as
diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically
regulated in the United States through HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act), breaches such as the event described could result in significant fines.
Beyond the financial and legal repercussions it is likely over a million people could have
been impacted by this breach, resulting in an increased risk of identity fraud and theft for
the remainder of their lives. The information that businesses and institutions keep on each
and every one of us should be protected with the upmost care and nothing more than
absolutely necessary should be stored.
Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the

secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

What happens when a business that collecting a large about of data, fails to protect and

The potentially compromised data was expansive, covering PII data such as names, birth

diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically
regulated in the United States through HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and

Beyond the financial and legal repercussions it is likely over a million people could have
been impacted by this breach, resulting in an increased risk of identity fraud and theft for
the remainder of their lives. The information that businesses and institutions keep on each
and every one of us should be protected with the upmost care and nothing more than
absolutely necessary should be stored.
Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would

Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.

secure all the data they have accumulated. April 20, 2022 Baptist Medical Center (San
Antonio, Texas) discovered that they had been in the target of a successful malware attack.
The potentially compromised data was expansive, covering PII data such as names, birth
dates, and social security numbers as well as Personal Health Information (PHI) such as
diagnosis, procedure information, and insurance information. PHI data is specifically
regulated in the United States through HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act), breaches such as the event described could result in significant fines.
Beyond the financial and legal repercussions it is likely over a million people could have
been impacted by this breach, resulting in an increased risk of identity fraud and theft for
the remainder of their lives. The information that businesses and institutions keep on each
and every one of us should be protected with the upmost care and nothing more than
absolutely necessary should be stored.
Most companies today collect and store a significant amount of data in relation to all
aspects of their business, including their supply chain, customers, employees and trade
secrets. As we have seen over the past few decades with the expansion of the internet,
along with the growth and advancement of technology as a whole the cumulative amount
of data has grown exponentially. When considering any business they will have customers
either individuals, governments or other businesses. At what point does customer data
become unethical and what are the legal repercussions of maintaining all that data. In the
United States we already have laws at various levels, (State, Federal, and International),
providing restrictions on what must be done to secure personally identifiable information
(PII). Violating these laws will generally result in significant fines, and could lead to the
business itself being shut down. In an ethical context, when is it too much data? I would
propose that any data beyond what is needed to for the ordinary course of business, or
recommend additional products or services the business provides. The ethical line is a
blurred line that varies across businesses and individuals and can directly effect the
reputation of the business and the trust of its clientele.
