Answer:

Question Completed:

Use the following facts to assess the time-based model of security for the ABC Company;  how well does the existing system protect ABC? Assume that the best-, average-,  and worst-case estimates are independent for each component of the model.

1) Estimated time that existing controls will protect the system from attack = 15  minutes (worst case), 20 minutes (average case), and 25 minutes (best case)

2) Estimated time to detect that an attack is happening = 5 minutes (best case), 8  minutes (average case) and 10 minutes (worst case)

3) Estimated time to respond (or correct) to an attack once it has been detected = 6 minutes  (best case), 14 minutes (average case), and 20 minutes (worst case)  

Current Estimate

Case                       P             D            R         Time based security(P>D+R)

Best                      25              5           6           25 > 11

Average               20              8           14           20 < 22

     Average               23            8           14           23 > 22

     Worst                    19            10          20           19 < 30

B) Case                       P             D            R         Time based security(P>D+R)

C) Case                       P             D            R         Time based security(P>D+R)

     Best                      25             5           3           25 > 8

    Average                20              8           6           20 > 14

E) Case                       P             D            R         Time based security(P>D+R)

     Best                      25            4           6           25 > 10

   Average                 20            7           14           20 < 21

    Worst                      15            9          20           15 < 29

    Worst                    15              10          12           15 < 22

Explanation:

Question 1) Which single investment would you recommend?

A single investment of $75,000 in option C. This gives a margin of +17 on the best case scenario and +6 on the average case scenario and -5 on the worst case scenario, which is the best alternative on the 3 scenarios as the joint outcome is +18 (17 + 6 - 5).

Question 2) Which combination?

Note that since the total amount is $100,000, the combination would be a $75,000 and a $25,000 investment

The combination of A and F, gives the best outcome on the 3 cases in comparison to other combinations

Case                       P             D            R         Time based security(P>D+R)

 Best                      30             5           4           30 > 9

Average                 23            8           9           23 > 17

Worst                     19              10          12          19 < 22
