CYBERSECURITY THREAT ANALYSIS

Consider the following scenario:

You're performing a security assessment of a network and discover an externally facing web server using basic HTTP authentication for access to a web application. This means that someone could perform a man in the middle attack against one of your employees while they access the application. By doing so, the attacker can intercept credentials by capturing and reviewing the network traffic from the session. a) Write a description for a network administrator who will be tasked with remediating the vulnerability. You don't need to tell them how to fix it, but you do need to convince them that they should.
