Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:
- How can you best include threat modeling within a company’s SDLC?
- What is the best points of the lifecycle to include threat management?

The software company that you worked with last week is concerned that they might be at risk due to the nature of their clients. They ask you for your recommendations for conducting a security audit. Security audits can be a very important method for identifying any security vulnerabilities. Some experts encourage organizations to include internal and external parties in a security audit. This means it might include all end users, which would involve all staff and the customers or client base. There are risks for including both of those groups that are not associated with a standard IT Audit.
Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:
- What is a security audit and what different types of audit are used?
- Discuss any audits that are specific to the firm’s industry and why they might be needed.
- Would you exclude any group from the security audit?
- Provide at least two supporting arguments for excluding this group.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words:
The software firm you have been working with these past few weeks determined that one of their vulnerabilities was the lack of a clear and concise security policy. Without a policy there is often an inconsistency in security focus by employees and management, with an increased risk for opportunities for security incidents.
Search the internet for two companies’ policies. Analyze the policies to determine commonalities. What would be your top three concepts that should be included in an organizational security policy mission statement? Explain your reasoning for your listed three concepts. How would this apply to the software consulting company? What is the difference between an internal policy and an external facing policy? How can you tell?
