Part C (20 pts)
Blockchain and cryptocurrency place security management solely on the user. Unlike a bank, if you lose your Blockchain wallet, you can never recover the wallet. Go to wallet.pirl.io and step through the Security Awareness Message (its in the attachment)
For part C, I am looking for a flier – one-page document – the security awareness product(s) is (are) the output of the security awareness program. The products are sometimes called security awareness artifacts. Here is a brief explanation of the security awareness program/product -> https://www.mediapro.com/blog/infographic-abcs-awareness-programs/ & https://www.trustwave.com/Resources/Trustwave-Blog…
The product should contain the title of the event (2 pt), address the security weaknesses of an online wallet as outlined in the security awareness message (4 pts each for a maximum of 16 pts), and provide an alternative to wallet.pirl.io (2 pts)
