The framework Information Technology professionals and Network Organizations use is often seen as open and dynamic. This can create many different pathways for cybercriminals to launch an attack on an enterprise network to cause panic, this situation could be prevented. Using the proposed framework, network administrators and networked organizations can improve their cybersecurity framework for future consumer networks. Implementing a network security plan that is up to date and outlines responsibilities of team members, creating a government subsidy to implement and increase safeguards on US based networks, and the analyzing of past cyber-attacks metadata to further understand the attacks that are causing problems for consumer networks can improve the cybersecurity framework for consumer networks and increase potential security on US based networks. Research found that the implementation of security plans, creating a government subsidy, and analyzing past metadata all show signs of improving the framework of cybersecurity in consumer based networks.
