A. Physically securing access points such as wireless routers, as well as preventing

theft, addresses the risk of malicious parties tampering with device settings. If

access points can be physically reached, it is often a simple matter to restore weak

default passwords and encryption keys, or to totally remove authentication and

encryption from the network.




B. Service set identifiers (SSIDs) should not be used to identify the organization

because hackers can associate the wireless local area network (WLAN) with a

known organization and this increases both their motivation to attack and,

potentially, the information available to do so.




C. The original Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security mechanism has been

demonstrated to have a number of exploitable weaknesses. The more recently

developed Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2)

standards represent considerably more secure means of authentication and

encryption.




D. Installing Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) on wireless access

points can actually open up security vulnerabilities. If SNMP is required at all, then

SNMP v3, which has stronger authentication mechanisms than earlier versions,

should be deployed.

A consulting firm has created a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) site for the purpose of

receiving financial data and has communicated the site's address, user ID and

password to the financial services company in separate email messages. The

company is to transmit its data to the FTP site after manually encrypting the data.

The IS auditor's GREATEST concern with this process is that:




Select an answer:

A.

the users may not remember to manually encrypt the data before transmission.




B.

the site credentials were sent to the financial services company via email.




C.

personnel at the consulting firm may obtain access to sensitive data.




D.

the use of a shared user ID to the FTP site does not allow for user accountability.

✓ :~~ You are correct, the answer is A.

A. If the data is not encrypted, an unauthorized external party may download

sensitive company data.




B. Even though the possibility exists that the logon information was captured from

the emails, data should be encrypted, so the theft of the data would not allow the

attacker to read it.




C. Some of the employees at the consulting firm will have access to the sensitive

data and the consulting firm must have procedures in place to protect the data.




D. Tracing accountability is of minimal concern compared to the compromise of

sensitive data.




During an IS risk assessment of a healthcare organization regarding protected

healthcare information (PHI), an IS auditor interviews IS management. Which of

the following findings from the interviews would be of MOST concern to the IS

auditor?
