/ #computer science homework help, #INTRODUCTION TO CYBERSECURTY


This week there are three requirements.

  1. 1. Mr. Scott would like for you to apply what you have learned about perimeters on the physical building to a single computer.
  2. 2. Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)
  3. 3. Using the NICE challenge framework, complete a new challenge.

Week 4 discussion topic

  1. 1. Read/Review Security in the Digital World Chapter 1-11Links to an external site.  (This is more a starting point for those that might not have a lot of IT/Computer experience, This is certainly not an assignment to read all 11 chapters.  Not all of this material will apply.)
  2. 2. Review Defense in Depth concepts Download Defense in Depth concepts

Assignment Part 1:

How would we define the perimeters (outer, inner, and interior)  of a computer as we did with the Tech worx building?

Define and justify the perimeters of a computer you have chosen.

What technology, software, or hardware exists that could protect each perimeter?  No more than two examples per perimeter.  In other words, I do not want a list of 10 examples.  Explain your choices.
