COMPUTER SECURITY_Week8

Consider this hypothetical situation:

David Doe is a network administrator for the ABC Company. David is passed over for promotion three times. He is quite vocal in his dissatisfaction with this situation. In fact, he begins to express negative opinions about the organization in general. Eventually, David quits and begins his own consulting business. Six months after David’s departure, it is discovered that a good deal of the ABC Company’s research has suddenly been duplicated by a competitor. Executives at ABC suspect that David Doe has done some consulting work for this competitor and may have passed on sensitive data. However, in the interim since David left, his computer has been formatted and reassigned to another person. ABC has no evidence that David Doe did anything wrong.

What steps might have been taken to detect David’s alleged industrial espionage?

What steps might have been taken to prevent his perpetrating such an offense?

 Paper Details

For this assessment, imagine your cousin, Frank, just bought a small hardware store. He wants to install a network that will include 14 PCs; a printer, scanner, and fax combination; and a cable modem line that are all currently configured as a P2P network. Frank is on a tight budget, so he would like to do the work himself. He has been conducting research and cannot decide if he should install Cat5, Cat6, or fiber. He has asked you to help with his decision.

To prepare to make recommendations, complete the practice labs provided in the Virtual Resource Portal activity for this assessment.

Then, using research you conduct on the Internet and the lab activity as references, write a 3–5-page report in which you make recommendations to Frank. Address the following:
•Compare and contrast the different cabling standards.
•Discuss the cost benefits of client/server networks.
•Define the basic concepts of network cabling.
•Recommend a network to Frank based on your research.
•Apply the concepts from the practice lab activity for this assessment.

Additional Requirements
•Written communication: Written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
•APA formatting: If you use sources, ensure that resources and citations are formatted according to APA (6th edition) style and formatting.
•Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
