Data With Integrity

Abstract
Cybersecurity is a fundamental piece of any business. No matter how big or small your business is, neglecting to fix your business's vulnerabilities could have devastating effects on your profits, effectiveness, and success. Unfortunately, small businesses tend to neglect this need in their businesses and only view cybersecurity as a ‘means to an end’. I have partnered with Integrity Church with the mission of finding and fixing most (if not all) of their information technology vulnerabilities. The goal is to not only make sure that Integrity Church is secure from both external and internal threat actors, but also make their organization run more efficiently. I have been working with four other information and computer technology students throughout this endeavor. The project deliverables are first, running a vulnerability scanner on their network to spot potential vulnerabilities. Second, create a policy for their on-premise cameras that will mitigate as much risk as possible with resources available. Third, setup a network-attached storage (NAS) that will be able to store the cameras’ video. Fourth, fix their auditorium access point (AP) that is experiencing consistent below-expected levels of throughput. Fifth, give their employees a presentation on best practices and on some of the most common threats that bad actors will use on organizations. By the end of this project, I have gained a greater understanding for how information technology is put into practical use within small businesses and gained familiarity with the tools we were using to accomplish the above tasks.
