Cybersecurity professionals must be able to reduce the vulnerability of an organization's network by designing a secure network.

Part 1

Secure network architecture design for a fictional company:

• Design a corporate infrastructure diagram in Visio or another network mapping tool (this deliverable must be readable by your professor; Cisco Packet Tracer is not acceptable). Your network diagram must include a minimum of 2 routers, 2 firewalls, 4 switches, 1 IDS, 1 IPS, a proxy server, an email server, a DHCP server, a DMZ, and finally 5 separate departments utilizing network segmentation with a minimum of 25 clients per department. You must also include an air gapped system for your R&D department to utilize.
• Using your network diagram as a guide, create a research department consisting of 5 clients (Windows 7, Windows Server, Ubuntu Linux, and 2 other unique systems of your choice). NOTE;MS Cyber Students, this will be used in your CYB-610 course.
• Develop the intellectual tools to explore and understand advance network concepts and protocols. Select 2-3 intellectual tools (e.g., Suricata, pfSense) and manipulate them to work together to create a framework and include them in your secure network design.

Part 2

5-7 minute screencast toinclude the following:

• Explain all components and how they interact with each other within the secure network design you created.
• Describe and discuss the security issues and implications of advanced and novel networks and protocols. Ensure your discussion applies to both current and new network technologies.
