Case study - BlackPOS Malware Steals Target's Customer Data
Each case study consists of a formal summary of the case in question along with answers to several follow-up questions that will be provided by the professor. A case study will touch on aspects of the case, including causes, factors, stakeholders, and possible solutions to the problem at hand. Your paper should perform a critical analysis on the study and should primarily be in your own words, but you may cite the book as needed. You must include at least three other additional outside peer-reviewed sources to help support the claims in the case study. These sources, along with the case study, should be properly cited in APA format. Failure to properly cite material may severely affect your grade.
