  Scenario

As a security administrator for Always Fresh, you have been instructed to ensure that Windows authentication, networking, and data access are hardened. This will help to provide a high level of security.

The following are issues to be addressed through hardening techniques:

§ Previous attempts to protect user accounts have resulted in users writing long passwords down and placing them near their workstations. Users should not write down passwords or create passwords that attackers could easily guess, such as words founds in the dictionary.

§ Every user, regardless of role, must have at least one unique user account. A user who operates in multiple roles may have multiple unique user accounts. Users should use the account for its intended role only.

§ Anonymous users of the web server applications should only be able to access servers located in the demilitarized zone (DMZ). No anonymous web application users should be able to access any protected resources in the Always Fresh IT infrastructure.

§ To protect servers from attack, each server should authenticate connections based on the source computer and user.

Tasks

Create a summary report to management that describes a hardening technique that addresses each issue listed above. Provide rationale for each selection.

Project Description:

You are the assistant director for the Information Technology (IT)  department at Healthy Living Motorcycles, Inc. In addition to overseeing  hardware and software selection, system maintenance, and employee IT  training, you create and maintain databases for the whole organization.  The organization uses one central database rather than maintaining  several individual ones to reduce data redundancy and errors. You will  take the opportunity to create an efficient database to keep track of  and manage information regarding the company’s employees, products, and  shareholders.

You   have an existing database that contains the products sold by  the company.   However, you need to create   a table that will classify  each product under a specific category. After the   table is created,  you import the category data into the new table.
 

  Import the data in the 02a_ProductCategory.xlsx   Excel  file into a new table. Use the column headings from the Excel file,    select the CategoryID field as the primary key, and then save the  table as Product Category.
   Hint: On the External Data tab, in Import & Link group, click New Data   Source.
 

  See next page for Instruction 3

With the Product Category table   open in Design view. Ensure the  field properties of the Product Category   table have been modified as  follows:

Field Name

You create relationships among   the four tables (Employees, Product  Category, Suppliers, and Products) so   that you can make the database  more efficient.
 

  Create the following relationships and enforce referential integrity:
 

• Product Category and Suppliers   tables using the SupplierID field
  • Suppliers and Employees tables   using the EmployeeContactID and EmployeeID fields
  • Product Category and Products   tables using the CategoryID field
 

  Save and close the Relationships window.
   Hint: On the Database Tools tab, in the Relationships group, click   Relationships.

You need to quickly find the   products that were supplied by a  foreign country. You will open the Suppliers   table and filter the  records.

Selecting appropriate monitoring tools for a virtual environment is a very important responsibility of the System Administrators. For this discussion research applications from two (2) different vendors offering monitoring tools for a virtual environment. Evaluate at least one (1) application from each vendor and answer the following questions:

1. List the main features of each product.
2. What type of monitoring is being performed?
3. Provide a real-world example of how and where these products are being used
4. What would you monitor in a large, enterprise with over 1000 VMs?

You are NOT limited to the Hyper-V tools but can and should expand your research to include monitoring tools designed for other virtualization environments, including VMware vSphere and Citrix XenServer.

Please DO NOT pick the same products, if it was already selected and described by other students. This will ensure much better discussion and learning opportunities.

Provide references to support your statements and conclusions. Do not copy and paste from the internet. Instead, include URLs to original sources so that anyone can get more information.
