Block Unusual Activityhiding Internal Designing C

Imagine you are an Information Systems Security Officer for a
medium-sized financial services firm that has operations in four (4)
states (Virginia, Florida, Arizona, and California). Due to the highly
sensitive data created, stored, and transported by your organization,
the CIO is concerned with implementing proper security controls for the
LAN-to-WAN domain. Specifically, the CIO is concerned with the following
areas:

  • Protecting data privacy across the WAN
  • Filtering undesirable network traffic from the Internet
  • Filtering the traffic to the Internet that does not adhere to the organizational acceptable use policy (AUP) for the Web
  • Having a zone that allows access for anonymous users but aggressively controls information exchange with internal resources
  • Having an area designed to trap attackers in order to monitor attacker activities
  • Allowing a means to monitor network traffic in real time as a means to identify and block unusual activity
  • Hiding internal IP addresses
  • Allowing operating system and application patch management The CIO has tasked you with proposing a series of hardware and software
    controls designed to provide security for the LAN-to-WAN domain. The CIO
    anticipates receiving both a written report and diagram(s) to support
    your recommendations.
  • Use MS Visio or an open source equivalent to graphically depict a solution for the provided scenario that will:
    1. filter undesirable network traffic from the Internet
    2. filter Web traffic to the Internet that does not adhere to the organizational AUP for the Web
    3. allow for a zone for anonymous users but aggressively controls information exchange with internal resources
    4. allow for an area designed to trap attackers in order to monitor attacker activities
    5. offer a means to monitor network traffic in real time as a means to identify and block unusual activity
    6. hide internal IP addresses Identify the fundamentals of public key infrastructure (PKI) Describe the manner in which your solution will protect the privacy of data transmitted across the WAN. Analyze the requirements necessary to allow for proper operating
      system and application patch management and describe a solution that
      would effective. Use at least three quality resources in this assignment
