A new medium-sized health care facility just opened, and you are hired as the CIO, the CEO is somewhat technical and has tasked you with creating a threat model. The CEO needs to decide from 3 selected models but needs your recommendation as well to make sound decisions. The concern is user authentication and credentials with third-party applications which is common in the health care industry. 

You will research several threat models as it applies to the health care industry, summarize three models and choose one as a recommendation to the CEO in a summary with a model using UML Diagrams (Do not copy and paste images from the Internet). In your document be sure to discuss the security risks and assign a label of low, medium or high risks and the CEO will make the determination to accept the risks or mitigate them).

The CEO has provided the attached article as a reference.

Task:

• Explain why the other threat models are not ideal (compare and contrast)
• Provide one recommendation with summary and UML diagram
• Must be in full APA
• 3-page minimum not including the title page, abstract and references.
