Case Study: You have just moved into a new home, and you are looking to upgrade/replace some of your Internet and networking devices. Suppose you have a budget of $1000 to buy the new devices. Research and pick a new desktop computer and a new router for your home, listing the specs while justifying your choices (like what you did in Assignment 2). The specs for each should also include the pricing and a link to where you can "purchase" it. This should be a complete thought. It could be one or more sentences. After contacting your Internet Service Provider and getting connected, you now need to secure all the devices, mobile, and stationary shown in the above diagram by fulfilling the problem requirements below. Problem Requirements 1. Research and pick a suitable computer and router for your needs. 2. All devices must be protected against intrusion from other people 3. Devices must be secure against malware 4. People using the devices must be security aware 5. Internet access must be secure from unauthorized access and/or intrusion 6. All devices must be up-to-date and properly functioning 7. All critical data must be recoverable in the event of failure 8. The digital communications environment must be safe to use and defended

Part 1: Identify Strategies Here the problem is defined in detail. The scope of the problem is stated so that it is clear why this problem is important. The impact and risks of the problem are evaluated so that each risk is named with its likelihood of occurring and its level of severity. Actions are assigned to each risk that will reduce or resolve it. Finally, all the people that are affected are identified giving a clear declaration of their level of involvement with the problem. These people are called stakeholders. Also include in this document the computer and router you picked.

Part 2: Propose Solutions - Evaluate Solutions - Evaluate Outcomes Here possible solutions are proposed and evaluated, and alternative approaches to solving the problem are identified and discussed (use the Class Project Discussion Forum). There may be many solutions to this problem. We will call them alternative solutions. Alternative solutions should be both creative and reasonable. The goal is to choose one solution. We will call this the recommended solution. Strive to clearly explain why this recommended solution is the best solution.

Questions to consider: Use these and other questions to develop and design your solutions. These are not questions to answer directly in your submissions but only to help you solve the problem and evaluate your solutions.

1. How will the security solution be used and by whom?

2. Are devices protected from unauthorized use and intrusion?

3. Are the people using the devices cyber-security aware?

4. Can the data on the devices be recovered?

5. Is the environment defended against malware?

6. What documentation and planning prepare for security problems?

7. Is the Internet use safe from intrusion?

8. Does your solution solve the whole problem for all the people involved?
