You are a network professional. Your company’s network consists
of one file and print server, one database server, and 25
workstations. The company wants to add a web server for customer
access and an Internet connection to the network for the
workstations.
For this assignment:
- Identify four likely security threats to the
web server and/or Internet connection
- Research (this doesn’t have to be “semester project” or “term
paper” kind of research) and describe appropriate countermeasures
to maintain security of the web server and Internet
connection.
- Create a short report (one page, no more than two pages at
most) that describes each threat and the countermeasures you
selected. Discuss the reasons you chose those
countermeasures. Discuss the benefits and
limitations of each countermeasure. Do not use the same
countermeasure more than once.
