External Threats
✓ Threats that originate outside an organization
examples of external threats
✓ -weather: This affects seasonal business that depends on good conditions
✓
✓ -the economy: If you sell something consumers need in any economy, you will fare
better than others

raising production costs for plastics manufactured, trucking firms and others
✓
✓ -Your computer system is hacked: This can knock your website out for days during
crucial selling periods
✓

✓
✓ -Market demand dries up: less and less people want the good you are selling
✓ ex) Blockbuster falling behind because Netflix started streaming
Internal Threats
✓ policies not followed, data, internal controls, system development, malicious
employees
✓ -untrustworthy employees: considering that employees have direct access to our
business data, systems and hardware, the possibility of dealing with internal theft
cases that involve data and even equipment should never be taken lightly
✓
✓ -internal business data theft: laptops, mobile devices, tablets and other devices are
entrusted to employees with the most sensitive information about the organization
✓ -considering that these devices contain critical company documents and data,
unauthorized access could be damaging to your business
✓

securing their physical networks and server room to prevent unauthorized personnel
from gaining access
According to one study, on average, how much does it cost a company when a
security threat becomes reality for a company resulting in downtime?
✓ According to the Aberdeen Report, the average cost of downtime is $260,000 per
hour

they do with those databases)

can do CRUD on which data? who can use those applications?)
