Overall Project Scenario Corporation Techs provides remote and on-site support to small and mid-size businesses. Clients use Corporation Techs’ services to solve problems involving malware removal, to manage data recovery and network issues, and to install hardware and software. Due to recent developments, most technical representatives will begin working from home within the next six months. Because Corporation Techs provides 24/7 support, its systems and communications pathways must be fully operational at all times. In addition, the company has been experiencing unprecedented growth and is preparing to double its client-facing staff. You are a junior network architect who is responsible for helping to plan and design network enhancements to create a more secure internal network, and to ensure secure remote access. Deliverables The project is divided into several parts. Details for each deliverable can be found in this document. Refer to the course Syllabus for submission dates.  Project Part 1: Network Design  Project Part 2: Firewall Selection and Placement  Project Part 3: Remote Access and VPNs  Project Part 4: Final Network Design Report Project Part 3: Remote Access and VPNs Scenario As you are aware, many remote users will soon need access to the internal network and services. A remote access and virtual private network (VPN) plan is needed to connect it all together. The senior network architect has asked you to create the plan that will allow secure remote access to the internal network while preventing unauthorized access. He specifically requested that all information transferred between remote users and the organizational servers be protected against snooping. Tasks For this part of the project, perform the following tasks: 1. Research and recommend the most appropriate VPN technology. The most likely solution is either an Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) VPN or SSL/TLS VPN. Describe the VPN technology and explain why it is the best choice for Corporation Techs. 2. Recommend any other forms of remote access that are relevant and describe how they would be used. 3. Create a draft report detailing all information as supportive documentation. 4. Cite sources, where appropriate. Submission Requirements  Format: Microsoft Word (or compatible)
