Assume that you have been hired as an IT expert by a small startup company to develop a technology project proposal that outlines a technology plan to set up an office for approximately 20 office staff members. Half of the office will work with desktop computers and the remaining with laptop computers using wireless networks. Employees will be permitted to use their own mobile devices on the network. The office will need at least one networked laser printer that employees can print to from the network. Each desktop computer will require access to the wired network and all the laptop computers will require wireless network access. All computers should be able to print to the network and access the internet.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT ALL OF THE FOLLOWING IS INCLUDED:
-Problem Statement: A description of the purpose and need for the
IT project for the business office. A description of the problem(s)
the proposal is trying to solve.
-Project Deliverables: A description of the required hardware
components and software necessary to configure computer
systems for the business office. This should include technical
reasons for your component choices.
– Type of motherboard
-Type of power supply
-Type of processor and memory
-Types of storage and storage capacity
-Types of wired and wireless network interface cards
-Types of laser printers and specifications
-Types of expansion cards (if necessary) for expanding ports
-Types of monitors and specifications
-Specifications for laptop computers.
-Type of operating system
-32-bit or 64-bit version
-Video and printers support.
-Project Beneficiaries: Write a description of all who will derive
direct benefit from this phase of the project and explain how they
will benefit.
-Project Deliverables: Write a description of the computer-network
hardware necessary to set up the computer networks and the
necessary software and protocols. Include the following topics:
-Routers and switches
-Wireless access points
-Hardware and software firewalls
-Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NDIS)
-Cables and connectors required for the physical network
-Logical and physical network topologies
-Which IP address versions (IPv4 or IPv6) will be utilized and why
-IP address pool for the network
-Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Control Protocol
(DHCP) solution.
-Virtualization: Based on what you learned about virtualization and
cloud computing in Module 7, discuss how virtualization or cloud
computing might benefit the project currently or in the future.
-Mobile Devices: Discuss mobile security risks. How will you secure
mobile devices? This will require developing a bring your own
device policy (BYOD).
-Policies: Write an acceptable-use policy that addresses
responsible network use and the consequences for
noncompliance.
-Incident response: How will failures in security, hardware, and
software be addressed?
-Backup and restore: Describe how systems and data will be
backed up and restored.
