SECURITY CONSULTATION REPORT AND GUIDELINE3
1. Introduction
The discussion is based on understanding the various aspects in relation to the
understanding over the implementation procedure of the BYOD policy that would be
implemented in Southern Cross University. In the present situation, the discussion is focused
over the emerging and contemporary threats that are being rising within the university due to low
forms of security strategies. Different situations of threats include the risk of data breaches from
the university database system. A proper lack of policy would be considered as negative towards
the implementation of proper measures taken for implementing better security of the embedded
systems (Ortbach, Walter and Öksüz 2015). Attacks from spam also affects the reputation of the
university and leads towards disastrous impacts.
The following parts of the discussion would be focused over the assessment of risks with
the process of implementation of BYOD policy for the information system (IS) for SCU. The
guidelines would be based on assessment of risks that would have affected the IS maintained for
the university. The next part of the discussion would be based on a report focusing on the
assessment of risks and recommending towards the implementation of a Certificate-based
Authentication system. The concluding part of the discussion would be focused on a guideline
discussing the Spam Act 2003 and further would include situations of spam and instructions
based on minimizing the spam threats.
