also to provide better detection?

Based on the TestOut sections from this module and the additional module resource articles that you reviewed, your paper
should address the following critical elements:

Identification of cybersecurity tenets that were violated and rationale of cause

Analysis of data defense that would have helped mitigate or prevent this breach

Recommendation of best practices to secure organization going forward
