Current Attack Vectors and Secure Network Design
Due Week 10 and worth 120 points
A friend has recently started a business that has a large amount of intellectual property that he wants to ensure is kept secure and confidential. He plans to hire 75-100 employees in the next 18 months and is preparing to build his systems infrastructure across three locations; a primary headquarters and two small satellite offices. All three locations will occupy one whole floor of a multitenant building in its respective location. Your friend has asked your opinion regarding a few major technology choices he has to make for his business, such as operating systems, mobile devices, cloud services, and wireless networking.
Write a ten to fifteen (10-15) page paper in which you:
Analyze Linux, Macintosh, and Windows operating systems and determine which you believe is the most susceptible to hackers based on hacking techniques and attack vectors and explain why.
Discuss the security concerns surrounding USB and other portable devices and identify the major risks that need to be considered and mitigated. 
Determine whether a network with wireless access points and clients is more susceptible to a network attack than a predominantly wired network. Explain the different tools that can be used to penetrate a wireless network in comparison to a network without wireless access points.
Consider the use of cloud providers to allow for access to data for employees and potential clients. Explain the security concerns for cloud-based solutions and whether or not you would consider this an optimal solution for this scenario.
Describe what you believe to be the most effective attack against mobile computing devices and explain in detail the tools that could be used to carry out this attack and how to use each.
Explain the minimum physical and technical controls that you would suggest for protecting the company’s intellectual property to protect from both internal and external…
