Question

When you created your Perimeter Design Project, if there had been a set budget of $10,000, how would it have affected your plan? What would you focus on, why? Research two real world examples where investing in perimeter security could have saved a company a lot of money.

Answer 1

solution:

**On $ 10000 budget can be enough for lower end security system but if high end hardware and software are required to provide perimeter security , we need more money for that and so with this allocated budget we can only provide weak security solution here.

So , we should focus on highly sensitive and effective systems like

• Border router : they direct traffic into, out of, and within our networks. It is the last router you control before an untrusted network such as the Internet

• Firewalls : It is a checkpoint  device with set of rules specifying what traffic it will allow or deny to pass through it. A firewall typically picks up where the border router leaves off and makes a much more thorough pass at filtering traffic.

• IDSs/Intrusion : Detection systems that sets of alert for network administrator

• IPSs/Intrusion prevention system that prevents the attack in addition to notifying it to administrator

**2 examples are:

1) First American Financial Corp(2019) : 885 million records were affected and

2) Marriott International (2018) : 500 million records were affected

All these incidents caused these corporates to loose millions of dollars in terms of stock and other valuations !!
