...SMT 320 Case Study #1 Kristian Lauren R. Martin November 6, 2011 Case Study #1 Building the Foundation – Security Assessments As the security manager of a major corporation tasked with creating the initial security assessment and auditing program for the company, the first step in developing proposals for the security services would be conducting a comprehensive survey (policies, procedures and operations) of the entire facility to identify the critical factors affecting the security of the premises (Broder, 2006). The next step would be to analyze the vulnerabilities and recommend protection which is cost-effective (Broder, 2006). To start, establishing policies and procedures which define the mission of the security department should be the bare minimum in the role of the security department. These would include the following: * Protection against internal and external theft (to prevent embezzlement, fraud, burglary, robbery, industrial espionage and theft of trade secrets and proprietary information) * Developing access-control procedures (to protect the perimeter of the facility and other sensitive areas) and anti-intrusion systems * Establishing lock-and-key control procedures * Establishing a workplace violence program * Controlling the movement of people on the premises * Reviewing security personnel hiring and deploying * Establishing emergency and disaster recovery plans * Identifying the resources needed and available for the security...

...Description:- Task 1:- a. The detailed design of a simple addressing solution (with diagram(s) and step by step workout of the calculations) that leaves room for growth is easy to administer and has the minimum wastage of available IP address space. Answer:- NAT (Network address translation) is a process by which a router can provide IP address to the computers. NAT is a process by which it allocates the IP address to a system, after remapping it with the network in a private area, so that one IP address could be allocated to one system, and the same IP address range will be used to connect all the computer system in one location. In this case study one building will have one router; the router is a networking device which provides IP address to its connected device in order to connect the...

...Unit 5 IP – Challenges and Security Issues American InterContinental University Abstract In this assignment, review of three different case studies will be discussed. Topics will include when an antivirus software cripples your computer, determining how secure cloud computing is, and electronic medical records systems. After the review of each case study, a set of questions will be answered to provide details on each study as to what was reviewed. Challenges and Security Issues (Case Studies) Introduction In this assignment, review of three different case studies will be discussed. Topics will include when an antivirus software cripples your computer, determining how secure cloud computing is, and electronic medical records systems. Case Study #1 When Antivirus Software Cripples Your Computers On April 21, 2010, McAfee crippled hundreds of thousands of McAfee equipped machines, by mistakenly sending an update to its users reclassifying svchost.exe as being a malicious file which was known as W32/wecorl.a virus (Humphries, 2010, para 1-2). The factors that were responsible for this software problem was that McAfee failed to send users a warning notifying them that svchost.exe was going to be either deleted or quarantined; instead they deleted the file completely. On the other hand, failure to detect this error was at the fault of McAfee’s automated quality assurance. Another reason this spread so quickly is because of the high demand for faster antivirus updates....

...such as facility security, physical security, or life safety. An expert conducts a involving a pre-determined constraint of checklist as well as an official reporting system. A security survey is a significant element of the general risk and security program (Craighead, 2009). When carrying out a security survey one must set clear goals. The goals would also be extensive from reviewing the fitness of the whole security program to more summarizing goals, such as the value and effectiveness of the physical security of the programs (Luis, 1994). SITE DESCRIPTION The Devry center building is located in downtown New York City on a four-acre piece of land. The building is a thirty story high containing 1,250 underground garage parking spaces and a rooftop garden. The building has a maximum capacity of 2000 tenants, and the tenants occupy the 27th and 30th floor of the building. SCOPE I conducted the security survey at Devry Center on December 1, 2013 to December 5, 2013. This report takes into consideration the current security and evaluates the site’s vulnerability and the associated risk factors. The information contained in this report came from the senior administrative officers in the building, parking attendants, the building management representatives, and from the tenants in Devry building. This report provides a detailed security site survey and an evaluation of...
