Corporate Strategy Protection of Infrastructure Example of iSales server being hacked
Question
iSales is an e-commerce site that sells very popular boutique gifts. The site does close to $500,000 sales each day. There have been two security breaches.1. Just before the peak selling season, late November, iSales.com, their Website was subject to a Denial of Service (DOS) attack that left iSales unable to respond to customers for 36 hours.
2. A computer hacker from Florida, described in court by a defense psychiatrist as an “idiot savantlike genius for computers and information technology”, broke into the iSales computer systems and stole the credit card numbers of their customers. The hacker would drive past the iSales location with a laptop and tap into the unprotected wireless Internet signals. He then installed “sniffer” programs that picked off credit and debit card numbers as they were processed by the iSales computers. He sold the credit card numbers overseas. The losses to iSales customers and banks was said to amount to several million dollars.
How should iSales proceed to protect their infrastructure against malicious threats in general and these two attacks in particular? What short term and long term defensive actions should iSales management take? Provide guidance to iSales on the actions they should take to manage of security risks.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
While I took occasional help for my different assignments from TheReliableTutors, I kept on wondering whether they could actually help with my dissertation paper. When I first approached them, they sounded confident and they already knew what is needed to be done. That was very relieving as even before my professor told me what to be done next, the thesis help tutor knew what to do. I have got an “A†in my master’s dissertation report and now I have assigned them by PhD thesis paper also.

The earlier service I was using only used to provide me with the codes for the Programming assignment help requested from them. At TheReliableTutor the online Singapore Programming tutors provide notes along with the codes which have helped me understand how the code actually works and explain it to the professor too. It has now become a habit with me too.

I was absolutely lost when I had to write the assignment on how to calculate the energy of singlet diradicals. I needed the assignment to not only mention the method of calculating but also explain the procedure with the help of relevant examples. At HwA this is exactly what I received when I submitted the request for my chemical equilibrium assignment question. I was so impressed with the work that I signed up for their package for the whole semester.
Alexis Callan Student
I always loved Chemistry but Chemical Engineering was something completely different. I took help from TheReliableTutor.com on several occasions and so far they have delivered the reports on time.

I had no clue about how to write a qualitative research paper on Faulkner and so I approached TheReliableTutor.com. I was also not sure whether they could help me or not but to my surprise they started asking the right kind of questions to me. When I clarified them with my professor, she was impressed and told me that I understood the concept of a research paper. The rest of it was a walk in the park. With my professor’s inputs they provided an excellent research paper and help me get an A

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
