Question

Your company, ImSecure Inc., is a security investigation firm. You have been contacted by Darling Company, a producer of cardstock for greeting card companies like Hallmike and Birthday Wishes Company. Darling currently requires orders to be placed several weeks in advance of the delivery date. Orders come in through traditional channels (account reps, paper forms, etc.). Hallmike, Darling’s largest client, now requires Darling to use e-commerce for order transmission and payment. Because of this new change, Darling is considering moving all of its clients to EDI for orders and payments.
Detail the new opportunities e-commerce solutions like EDI present for internal and external perpetrators trying to defraud Darling Company.

Answer 1

Answer:

Improperly secured software or not updating systems with critical updates from vendors

Explanation:

It is given that ImSecure Inc. is contacted by the Darling company that it would like to consider moving its client to the EDI for all the order sand payments.

EDI stands for electronic data interchange. It is a platform through which one organization sends their important information through some electronic medium to their associated organization for businesses.

This provides accuracy and transparency to the process but it also comes with some threats. If the electronics exchange is not done through a secured platform, there can be perpetrators of frauds to the organization.

One such opportunity is when these transaction of information is done through improperly secured software or when the software is not updated.
