M07 - Part 1: Case Project: Lake Point Security Consulting

Bay Pointe Security Consulting (BPSC) provides security consulting services to a wide range of businesses, individuals, schools, and organizations. BPSC has hired you as a technology student to help them with a new project and provide real-world experience to students who are interested in the security field.

Miles Comfort Coaches (MCC) is a regional charter bus service. Recently an IT employee was caught using the MCC network servers to store pirated software, yet because there were no incident response procedures in place, he was able to erase the software and destroy the evidence. MCC has approached BPSC to hire them to provide external forensics response services. However, several employees who are aware of the forensic analysis performed on the employee’s computer have now raised concern about MCC scanning their computers. MCC has asked BPSC to help educate all employees about computer forensics.

1. Create a PowerPoint presentation that provides an explanation of computer forensics, why it is important, and the basic forensics procedures that should be used. The presentation should be 10 slides in length.

Case Project 14-3 states:

"Create a one-page document of a personal disaster recovery procedure for your home computer. Be sure to include what needs to be protected and why. Also include information about where your data backups are stored and how they can be retrieved. Does your DRP show that what you are doing to protect your assets is sufficient? Should any changes be made?" (Ciampa 649).
