CASE STUDY
After transitioning out of the military, you were contracted by a medium-sized start-up company that processes credit card transactions on a daily basis. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and other business staff have no knowledge of network security or the threats they face. They have an open position for a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), but have yet to fill it. Thus, they hire you for your expertise in network security, firewalls, and VPN solutions.
This is a short term engagement that lasts 30 days. As the company’s subject matter expert/consultant, the CEO wants a 4-6 page report at the end of your assignment. The CEO tells you they will have remote users, so firewall and VPN technologies are needed.
Write a 4-6 page report on network security, firewalls, and VPN solutions.
Requirements:
- Your submission should be 4 to 6 pages long (not including the title page and the reference page).
- All sections are represented (Sections 1.0 – 4.0).
- Paper is in APA format with proper citations and references.
- 1″ margins.
- In Times New Roman or Arial font, font size 12.
- Utilized correct grammar and spelling.
- Include and cite references as needed.
- The key to this assignment is to demonstrate your understanding of the topics, not to re-word the text or reference material.
