Assignment Problem: The website of an organization serves as the front line for its communication with customers. Therefore, it is very important to protect the security of web pages. Specifically, if the website is used to transmit or accept sensitive information such as credit card numbers, social security numbers and so on, the web pages become prone to security attacks. However, if the main webpage of an organization is not used to transmit sensitive information, is there a need to invest in security for public facing web pages?
Do you agree that it is important to protect web pages even though they don't transmit sensitive information?
Based on your readings in this module, identify the security threats that may affect web pages even if they don't transmit sensitive information.
Please note that you may use the Internet in order to search for information about different kinds of attacks. Please also read the responses of your classmates in order to learn about their perspectives on protecting public facing web pages.
