...methods and actions required to maintain an acceptable level of business function while facing a myriad of operational challenges (Lindros & Tittel, 2014). The variables that create these challenges may in include, but not limited to, environmental disasters, internal mishaps, and political unrest. Nonetheless, a complete enterprise continuity plan (ECP) includes an organizational disaster recovery plan (DRP) for technical systems restoration. A DRP serves to outline the process and procedures needed by an organization’s information technology team when restoring critical technical systems after a crisis (Lindros & Tittel, 2014). The university is hoping to become as a center of academic excellence through a certification presented by the National Security Agency (NSA). With this certification, the school may see the possibility of increased funding from the government and external organizations. Additionally, other designations may include, but not limited to, research awards, the hiring of esteemed faculty members and the increase in enrollment. The organization will have to develop and show the execution of their ECP and DRP, to achieve the NSA certification. To kick this off the school must first assess several areas before structuring the plans. The university must identify what the program will encompass, key areas to focus on in the organization, critical services offered by the organization, and dependence on internal and external entities (Lindros & Tittel, 2014)...

...------------------------------------------------- ENTERPRISE CONTINUITY PLANNING FXT2 TASK 2 November 10, 2015 chrystal kimbrough WGU November 10, 2015 chrystal kimbrough WGU EXPLANATION SUMMARY ENTERPRISE CONTINUITY PLANNING A company’s worst fear came to fruition when an employee hacked into his own records on the human resource system and was successful in modifying their own records. The employee gave himself an increase in pay by increase his base salary rate. The employee had success in performing this crime by spoofing an IP address, allowing their self the ability to eavesdrop on the network. By spoofing the specific IP address, the employee was able to find the location of the data and successfully modified it for their gain. After the fact, the employee received two paychecks containing the fraudulent salary. An auditor, who was effectively performing their job duties, became aware of the fraudulent acts of the employee, and thus sent an email to several pertinent individuals within the organization making them aware of the situation and that there is potentially a discretion with the employee’s paycheck. Probably on the “look-out” for reaction from their errant ways, the employee somehow was able to intercept the emails that were intended for the original recipients. The employee then created falsified responses, posing them to seem as if they were coming from the intended individuals that the original email was sent to. This exchange went on back and...
