    Lab - Cybersecurity Case Studies

    Objectives
    Research and analyze cyber security incidents

    Background / Scenario
    Governments, businesses, and individual users are increasingly the targets of cyberattacks and experts
    predict that these attacks are likely to increase in the future. Cybersecurity education is a top international
    priority as high-profile cyber-security related incidents raise the fear that attacks could threaten the global
    economy. The Center for Strategic and International Studies estimates that the cost of cybercrime to the
    global economy is more than $400 billion annually and in the United State alone as many as 3000 companies
    had their systems compromised in 2013. In this lab you will study four high profile cyberattacks and be
    prepared to discuss the who, what, why and how of each attack.

    Required Resources
     PC or mobile device with Internet access

    Step 1: Conduct search of high profile cyberattacks.


    a. Using your favorite search engine conduct a search for each of the cyberattacks listed below. Your
    search will likely turn up multiple results ranging from news articles to technical articles.
    Home Depot Security Breach
    Target Credit Card Breach
    The Stuxnet Virus
    Sony Pictures Entertainment Hack
    Note: You can use the web browser in virtual machine installed in a previous lab to research the hack. By
    using the virtual machine, you may prevent malware from being installed on your computer.
    b. Read the articles found from your search in step 1a and be prepared to discuss and share your research
    on the who, what, when, where, and why of each attack.

    Step 2: Write an analysis of a cyberattack.


    Select one of the high-profile cyberattacks from step 1a and write an analysis of the attack that includes
    answers to the questions below.
    a. Who were the victims of the attacks?
