cyber security vulnerability

characterization of current and emerging vulnerabilities and threats

With the Attack Vector and Attribution Analysis complete, in this step your nation team will assess the impact of identified threats and prioritize the allocation of resources to mitigate or prevent risks. As a group, you will collaborate to develop and submit one Vulnerability Assessment Matrix for your nation. This spreadsheet includes the following:

  • characterization of current and emerging vulnerabilities and threats (cyber security vulnerability)
  • identification of the attack vector(s) employed against each
  • your assessment (high, medium, or low) of the impact the vulnerability could have on your organization

Submit your matrix for feedback. This matrix will be included in the final project deliverable, the Cybersecurity Risk Assessment.
