Your company recently reviewed the results of a penetration test on your network. Several vulnerabilities were identified, and the IT security management team has recommended mitigation. The manager has asked you to construct a plan of action and milestones (POA&M) given that the following vulnerabilities and mitigations were identified: 

The penetration test showed that not all systems had malware protection software in place. The mitigation was to write a malware defense process to include all employees and retest the system after the process was implemented.

The penetration test indicated that the data server that houses employee payroll records had an admin password of “admin.” The mitigation was to perform extensive hardening of the data server.

The penetration test also identified many laptop computers that employees brought to work and connected to the internal network, some of which were easily compromised. The mitigation was to write a bring your own device (BYOD) policy for all employees and train the employees on how to use their devices at work. Complete the 1- to 2-page Plan of Action and Milestones Template. Cite all sources using APA guidelines. Submit your assignment.
