Introduction of Digital world

            Digital world is a like a two edges sword as one side it offers great opportunities to the humans and businesses but on the other side in terms of cyber-attacks it has the most dangerous faces. Hackers are the evil generous and they are all the time in search of a loop holes to breach the sensitive information. Therefore, a large number of business organizations have faced serious hacking attacks that have ruined their businesses. Therefore, for the company the Malicious hacking is one of the major issues to address for their IT system.

Viruses of Digital world

        As viruses are evolving constantly and entering into the internet that can totally denature the IT programs. Its introduction in John Dough’s computer can damage its computer either can slow down it or can cause loss of important files. As it provided its services online also and all of the data is saved in its computer system so the viral attack can lead to loss of data which can cause inappropriate harms to the company. Detection of viruses and monitoring is required so that data can keep secure. IT departments are supposed to handle problems for the avoidance of a critical time period. It is becoming necessary to get anti-viruses solutions so here it is mentioning a draft plan for protection against viral attack in the computer system of John Doughs.

Phishing attack of Digital world

        Phishing is another dangerous threat for the IT system that might create great issues for the IT system of John Droughts therefore, to protect the information from the attackers there is need to take serious steps.

Confidential information of Digital world

        The John Doughts will have to deal with the confidential information that could be in the form of the financial information and personal information of their clients. This is very sensitive issues the company has too deal the confidential information with great care.

Draft plan of Digital world

Installation of antiviruses programs of Digital world

            There must be the installation of antiviruses programs and firewalls that must run in the computer for protection against viral attack at first. There is the availability of a variety of antivirus programs in the market such as Norton which aimed to provide 100% protection. TOTAL AV is an antivirus program which aims to provide 97% protection to the system. After it, Panda is providing 97% of the security from viral attacks.

Latest virus signature files of Digital world

        The company must get the most modern and latest identified DAT or latest signature files as it helps in identifying the specific virus. The scanner is used in it which scans the specific type of virus in a unique way and the efficiency of identifying scanner depends on the type of scanner installed. It can scan all the threats expected from viral attack (Landesman, 2018). According to the associated viruses, scanners must install in the software. The installation must be automatically updated that if an operator is not available to use a computer in some cases than it can automatically update or scheduled to download these programs on a regular basis.

Do it for some days of Digital world

        When the viral attacks are very common to attack with new and different types of viruses and these viruses are threatened to introduce every day than the safest thing a programmer or safety measure of IT of Johns Dough can do is the proper maintenance of current software and programs which are usually an easy process on daily basis. In that way, new upcoming viruses can stop to enter in the programs and protection can be done against diminishing of John Dough data. There must be automatic settings of goals with ROI thresholds. These updates can optimize control.

Detection and recovery of viral incident of Digital world

Identification of virus of Digital world

        Nature of the attack by the virus must determine after the virus entrance into the computer. Tools such as handle.exe can be used to gather information from the infected system and identify the common problems of all the affected systems (Tarng & Wernhuar, 2011).

Assess the scope of the issue of Digital world

        Full inventory must be done to identify the harm that has occurred to the environment and the total impact that the virus did to the system and information in the system of John Dough. Assess the availability of computers that are in case of infection.

Coordination of response of Digital world

        After the attack has been identified, the proper and effective team must be gathered to deal with that viral infection that is capable of giving recommendations and implementing proper solutions.

Isolation of the system of Digital world

        After a viral attack has been specified and the team has been selected, isolation of the system must be done so that viral attack no more capable to attack other systems. This can limit the spread of the virus if it is not yet affected all the computing and IT systems. The response of the team of incidence must stop working. There must be blockage of the connection at first.

        The financial impact must be observed related to the data that is destroyed by the viral attack and forensic investigations must be done. The determination of the cause of virus must be done that either it is caused by employee fault as by violation of policy.

Setup of command center of Digital world

There must be a command center in John Dough in respond of viral attack. Few items are required for it:

There must be accessible to all the persons who are involved in the inspection team.

If the problem exceeds, there must be access to professionals (Taylor & Laurence, 2012).

There must be a connection to telephone equipment and dedicated telephone lines with connectivity to LAN lines.

Recovery from viral attack:

There must be an immediate response by updating antivirus software at an authentic level.

Educate the operators who are operating as an incident can occur due to lack of updating or operating the software.
