Unit 4

· Network Design and Management Roles and Responsibilities

Introduction

Unit 4 focuses on secure network design and effective management of installed networks. The network that supports each organization is unique and requires careful assessment of the specific characteristics unique to that particular implementation. The factors considered go beyond those that impact the initial selection and installation. The future plans of the organization and the ongoing impacts of that design on the ability to effectively manage the network are also of critical importance. The size of the organization, the number of locations, the number of transactions, and the level of sensitivity of the data that will be streaming across the network are all examples of critical factors to consider when designing a secure network.

Objectives

To successfully complete this learning unit, you will be expected to:

1. Identify the strategies IT and information security professionals can follow to mitigate any potential risk to the network.

2. Create a diagram for a basic modern network architecture for a specific scenario.

3. Compare and contrast the roles of network and security administrators specific to design, architecture, configuration, and monitoring.

4. Exhibit proficiency in writing, critical thinking, and research topic areas in IT security fundamentals.
