Cyber

You are part of the networking team for a plastics manufacturing company, International Plastics, Inc., reporting to the director of IT infrastructure.

 

The director gave you an assignment to create detailed technical plans for the creation of a secure wireless network at the corporate offices only.

 

The wireless network must meet the following criteria:

· Cover the entire campus with no loss of connectivity when moving from one area to the next.

· Comply with all Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations.

· Be fast enough for employees to complete normal business activities while using wireless connectivity.

· Be cost-effective—the organization wants costs to be minimized while still meeting the other requirements.

· Be secure—due to client contractual terms, the wireless network must be secure and prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.

 

Write a 1- to 2-page report for the director of IT describing the requirements you are considering as your team implements the wireless network. Include the following:

· Design requirements that must be addressed

· Justification to use different frequencies, channels, and antennae in the installation

· Regulatory requirements to consider in implementation

· Security requirements

 

Create a 1-page table summarizing possible frequency choices. Include an explanation of the strengths and weaknesses of each.

 

Format any citations according to APA guidelines.
