Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited / The purpose of this study was to determine whether Naval Medicine's current Information Assurance Policy and resultant efforts properly address federal requirements or current threats confronting Naval Medicine information technology professionals. The primary research was conducted with a survey instrument detailing thirty questions with various response categories. The findings of the survey questionnaire revealed the existing numbers of previously compromised systems were directly related to the frequency of vulnerability scanning and remediation practices in the current threat environment. This study will provide insight to anyone interested in the future assessment of Naval Medicine's information security posture. These findings have important implications for command personnel charged with the responsibility and accountability of Naval Medicine's networks and data systems, as well as other communities throughout the Navy. / Lieutenant, United States Navy
