VISS ICT Ignite - Cyber Security Project

To comprehensively enhance the security posture of our company's Crypto OTC desk operations, ensuring the robust protection of sensitive data, systems, and networks. Company Overview for Context: We are a FINTRAC-licensed organization specializing in cryptocurrency Over-The-Counter (OTC) desk services. We prioritize the security and integrity of our operations to safeguard our clients' trust and comply with regulatory requirements. Learner Opportunity: By participating in this project, learners will have a unique opportunity to apply their freshly acquired cybersecurity skills in a real-world, regulated financial environment. They will work closely with our team to identify vulnerabilities, design and implement security enhancements, and contribute to the ongoing protection of our Crypto OTC desk operations. Additionally, learners will: Design, implement, and test blockchain solutions, including smart contracts and NFTs , for authenticating oil and gas transactions. Integrate QR code verification as a complementary tool to certify authenticity and improve usability for stakeholders unfamiliar with blockchain. Tasks and Activities for Learners: 1. Security Assessment: Conduct vulnerability scans and risk analyses on our Crypto OTC desk's infrastructure and workflows. Identify potential entry points for cyber threats and prioritize them based on risk. Blockchain Security : Assess the risks associated with smart contract deployment for oil and gas trading, identifying potential vulnerabilities in the contract code and blockchain network infrastructure. 2. Security Architecture Enhancement: Design and propose improvements to our current security architecture. Ensure alignment with industry best practices and FINTRAC regulatory requirements. Smart Contract Integration : Develop an architecture that integrates smart contracts into the Crypto OTC desk’s workflow for the oil and gas transactions, ensuring secure interaction between blockchain elements and our infrastructure. QR Code Verification Design : Develop a process to generate and link QR codes to blockchain transaction records, making them accessible via blockchain explorers or secure off-chain platforms. 3. Implementation and Testing: Collaborate with our team to implement recommended security measures. Perform thorough testing to validate the effectiveness of the new security configurations. Smart Contract Execution Testing : Deploy smart contracts for oil and gas transactions in a testnet environment and verify proper execution of command chains, payment release, and title transfer automation. QR Code Testing : Ensure QR codes correctly link to blockchain-verified transaction summaries, testing both accessibility and security. 4. Monitoring and Incident Response Planning: Establish a monitoring plan to detect potential security breaches. Develop an incident response plan tailored to our Crypto OTC desk operations. Blockchain Monitoring : Implement tools for real-time monitoring of blockchain interactions, ensuring transaction integrity and detecting anomalies in smart contract execution. QR Code Fraud Prevention : Include monitoring for QR code misuse or tampering, ensuring that each code links only to its intended blockchain record. 5. Documentation and Knowledge Transfer: Maintain detailed records of all activities, findings, and solutions implemented. Conduct a knowledge transfer session with our team to ensure seamless ongoing management. Blockchain Documentation : Provide detailed explanations of the smart contract design, NFT integration processes, and blockchain-specific incident response protocols. QR Code Workflow Documentation : Create user guides for generating and validating QR codes, tailored to oil and gas industry stakeholders. Deliverables to Achieve the Project Goal: 1.      Comprehensive Security Assessment Report Identify vulnerabilities and blockchain-specific risks. 2.      Enhanced Security Architecture Design Document Include blockchain integration design, smart contract workflows, and QR code verification. 3.      Implementation and Testing Report Verify the effectiveness of security enhancements, blockchain deployments, and QR code integration. 4.      Monitoring Plan and Incident Response Procedure Document Define specific steps to handle smart contract, NFT, and QR code-related incidents. 5.      Final Project Presentation and Knowledge Transfer Session Summarize results and ensure the team understands blockchain, QR code workflows, and cybersecurity integrations. Expected Outcomes: Upon project completion, we aim to have significantly enhanced the security of our Crypto OTC desk operations, ensuring the protection of sensitive data and compliance with regulatory requirements. In addition, the integration of smart contracts, NFTs, and QR codes into the oil and gas transaction process will establish a new standard for securing commodity trades. Learners will gain hands-on experience with: Managing a cybersecurity project within a regulated financial sector environment. Designing, deploying, and securing blockchain solutions for industrial applications. Bridging technical and non-technical stakeholders through QR code integration.
