About this template
This OKR is aimed at enhancing the resilience of the AWS infrastructure against DDoS attacks. A comprehensive approach involving PenTesting, gap assessment, and remediation is planned. This includes identifying all components of the organization's network infrastructure and implementing preventative measures to address all identified vulnerabilities.
The ambition is to complete a holistic gap assessment, identifying 100% of areas vulnerable to DDoS attacks. A cybersecurity expert needs to be hired for this task which will cover all aspects of the security architecture and identify the weak areas exposed to possible DDoS attacks effectively.
The plan is to develop and implement a thorough remediation strategy, with the goal of reducing DDoS vulnerabilities by 50%. Identifying the current DDoS vulnerabilities is the first step. Then, a comprehensive remediation strategy needs to be developed and applied across the system.
Lastly, conducting comprehensive PenTesting on all AWS components is essential to identify potential vulnerabilities. Detailed reports from the PenTesting results should be compiled and assessed. Prompt and efficient addressing of identified vulnerabilities should follow suit. A professional PenTesting agency could be consulted for an increased level of scrutiny.
