Question 8: (40 minutes) You have presented your proposal for replacing the QData facility (Question 7) to the CEO and Board of Directors and they have approved it with one major caveat: they required you to ensure that the transition is seamless so that no lost business is incurred. You agree to describe your implementation plan at a special meeting of the Board within 1 week. 8.1) Given the importance of this transition to the company, and in preparation for that meeting, identify and list by business function the appropriate technical and leadership teams that you think are necessary to successfully implement this transition. (hint: the Cisco case study may be a good reference here) [5 points] 8.2) You plan to use Lean Disciplined Agile Development (Scrum) to implement your proposal. In 150 words or less, describe to the Board of Directors how the Scrum process will enable you to accurately track when the project will be completed. [10 points) 8.3) As part of this project, you also recommended, and the Board agreed, that iPremier should deploy an Al driven Extended Detection and Response (XDR) system to significantly reduce the likelihood of a SYN Flood attack succeeding again. In 2 or 3 sentences describe how an XDR system works. Then, in 150 words or less, describe how such an XDR system could prevent SYN Flood attacks (this may require you to do some research on XDR systems).
