Intuit Risk Assessment – IT Group Tasks
Research
Researchthe following items to assist in negotiating an appropriate risk assessment for the budget of Intuit, Inc.’s cloud-based applications project:
· Past and present incidents, in order to plan for threats that might come in the future
· Risk trends in the real world (new threats, new viruses, undiscovered flaws and vulnerabilities, etc.)
· Appropriate tools to gather incident data and reporting tools to protect information assets, such as malware protection, antivirus software, network firewalls, two-factor authentication, etc.
· Requirements that must be done by an independent party, such as a penetration test or audit
· Training for users (need budget and cooperation from other departments)
