Grumheed Corporation

Dallas/Fort Worth Facility

Grumheed Corporation (GC), a world leader in advanced tactical drones, plans to open a facility in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.  While having not settled on an exact location, ideally the facility will be within two miles of the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport via major highway. While maintaining our original facility in Boston, the new campus will become the primary location for research and demonstration of equipment and sales.  Since our company produces state-of-the-art military equipment, this new complex must have all possible security measures.  Visitors, potential customers, current customers, support staff, design engineers and demonstration staff will all be housed in this 100,000 square foot facility. For BC/DR purposes the data warehouse will be duplicated to the Boston facility nightly.

This is a list of requirements facility:

·       Controlled access to the building for everyone.

·       A lobby, conference area, and sales area that needs controlled access

·       A highly secure area for system designers

·       An extremely secure area to house the data center.

·       Secure transfer of archival data between Dallas and Boston

·       Secure access to the Internet for employees

Please present a detailed proposal of your recommendations for physical, technical and administrative security measures for our new facility. In your proposal please recommend categories of countermeasures and the associated risks that the countermeasures mitigate. You are not expected to recommend a specific brand/model of a countermeasure. Please include a section detailing additional risks that have not been mitigated by your proposal.  Your proposal should be a minimum of 1500 words and properly site all references.
