One of the main projects for this course is the creation of a virtual systems and networking concept brief in which you will configure operating systems in a simulated environment as a proof of concept before implementing changes in the live production environment. This work is often referred to as “sandboxing.” As a security analyst, you will be asked to install and configure new settings within a virtualized environment. The audience for this brief is the system administrator for a fictional organization at which you are employed. This brief will serve as the basis for a proposal that your manager will be creating to propose a new network configuration. You have also been asked to provide a level of justification around the basic concepts of virtual systems so that your system administrator can include that in a proposal to other organizational stakeholders. The project leverages the skills that you have built using tools in Modules Two and Three. The project will be submitted in Module Five. Access the GNS3 environment by navigating to the Project One - Virtual Systems and Networking Concept Brief lab. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course competency: ? CYB-220-01: Describe the basic concepts and uses of virtual systems and networks Scenario As a security analyst, you are tasked with creating a concept brief for your system administrator. This task includes creating multiple accounts, configuring network settings, and modifying group policies. To help you complete this task, your instructor will provide you with a scenario containing network configuration settings and group policy changes that you will need to implement. Additionally, you will be asked to describe the benefits and drawbacks of virtualization technology. Prompt Address the critical elements listed below. The codes shown in brackets indicate the course competency to which each critical element is aligned. Virtual Systems and Networking Concept Brief I. Using Virtual Systems A. Configure group policy settings to meet project specifications. Provide screenshots from the local group policy editor dialog box as evidence of each change. [CYB-220-01] B. Configure network resources to meet the network configuration settings. Provide a screenshot of each network setting configuration. [CYB-220-01] II. Conceptual Justification for Uses of Virtual Systems A. Describe the benefits of using virtualization technology in sandboxing. [CYB-220-01] B. Describe the drawbacks of using virtualization technology in sandboxing. [CYB-220-01] C. Describe a situation other than sandboxing where virtualization technology would be a valuable solution.

1)Reflect on the assigned readings for the week. Respond to the following prompts: “What do I feel are the most important aspects of my learning in the chapters this week?” and “What about this learning was really worthy of my time and understanding?” Then explain how important it is in society or business.Also, provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:Develop a list of criteria for a project management software package to be used in a project management course.You are in charge of the selection and implementation of a new project management software package in your organization. Develop a project plan and explain the details.2)As part of your company’s effort to select a project management software package, you have been asked to approach several other companies that presently use such packages.Develop a questionnaire to help collect the relevant information. Fill out two questionnaires, each representing a different software package.Compare the responses of the companies and select the best software of the two.
