CHALLENGES IN CYBER SECURITY FOR BUSINESS2
1. Opening Statement of Research Problem and Research Question
The research in the discussion focuses over the various kind of challenges that
are faced by businesses with the negative impacts of cyber security. The problem that
has been focused within the research is based on the security aspects that need to be
strengthened with the impact of the modern computing systems (Bekara 2014).
Different problems that are being faced by cyber security experts within an organization
includes lack of a proper IT security management, cyber espionage, insider attacks and
many others. These kind of problems form a major impact towards degrading the
reputation of the organization within the market.
The research question that have been identified for the research discusses the
challenges that are mostly faced by business based on the aspect of cyber security in
relation to the computing systems. Cyber security poses different kind of challenges for
the business, which in turn leads to problems for the cyber security experts in mitigating
them at the earliest (Sajid, Abbas and Saleem 2016). Another research question also
discusses about the factors that help in leading towards the vulnerability of the systems.
With the increase in technological possibilities and new age innovation, hackers have
discovered new ways of posing attacks towards businesses and organizations.
After a discussion over the problems faced within the business, the research
would also discuss about the kind of recommendations that could be supported for
ensuring cyber security for the organization. These recommendation would be
discussed in detail within the report and also widely discuss the ways in which new
advanced systems could help in protecting the rights of people involved within an
organization.
2. Discussion on Cyber Security
2.1 The Challenges posed by Cyber Security in Businesses
The organizations who are often vulnerable to cyber security face different
bizarre kind of issues based on cyber security. This is mostly being faced due to a
certain lack of technical support and lack of awareness within the business strategies.
Some of the major challenges that could be discussed in the context of cyber security in
relation to an organization are:
1. Cyber Espionage within the Cloud Service Platform – One of the most
intriguing problems that are being faced by cyber security experts is based on dealing
with the problems based on cyber espionage. In the present times, business mostly
depend on virtual storage systems. In a recent study focused over different companies
from all over the world, it can be seen that the percentage of adoption of cloud services
have increased to 77% in various organizations (Sametinger et al. 2015). There is a
high economic cost in relation to cyber espionage. An attacker who would be present
outside the premises of an organization could pose harm over private, public or hybrid
form of clod technologies in order to gain access to the secrets of trade, employee data
and other critical assets of the organization. These could thus lead to critical problems
arising before the organization.
