Proper network design provides for compliant security, not only isolating users and their traffic, but also preventing attackers from easily traversing a network.

Using Microsoft Visio or another online network diagramming tool, diagram the network that was analyzed in the Topic 1 “Quantify the System” assignment.

Then, create a diagram for a better approach for compliance, based on one of the following frameworks: PCI, HIPAA, NIST, or any other accepted framework.

Ideally, the network will be an Enterprise class consisting of 1000+ clients for various corporate departments, with 50-100 servers providing typical network services. The network infrastructure will be using Layer 3 switches and layered routing to provide separation of subnets.

Your diagram, at a minimum, should include the following secure network design elements: Firewalls, IDS/IPS, DMZ, Vlans, Border and Gateway routers, private IP addressing, Isolated Server Subnets, Network Access Control, and VPN concentrator.

APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.

Refer to “Demonstrating the Gap Scoring Guide,” prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Also, I don’t except to see 50-100 servers on your diagram. However, your diagram, at a minimum, should include the following secure network design elements: Firewalls, IDS/IPS, DMZ, Vlans, Border and Gateway routers, private IP addressing, Isolated Server Subnets, Network Access Control, and VPN concentrator.

This is an assignment that many students forget to label or include what is required. That said, I want everyone to do their best and get the best possible grade.

Case Summary: Champo Carpets is one of the largest carpet manufacturing companies based in India, with customers across the world, including some of the most reputed stores and catalog companies. Champo Carpets is based out of Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh, which is one of the most famous clusters of carpet weaving in India. This cluster is spread over 1,000 sq. km and comprises many villages and districts in and around it. The company is a vertically integrated manufacturer and exporter of carpets and floor coverings, with more than 52 years of existence. At the beginning of 2020, the company employed 1,500 people with a capacity to produce 200,000 pieces of carpets and floor coverings per month. As part of sales and marketing, Champo Carpets shared sample designs with its potential customers, based on which the customer placed an order. The sample design selection was done in various ways and the process itself is costly and elaborate. To capture industry trends, a team of the company visited various trade shows and events and sent samples to the client as per the latest fiber and color trends. However, their sample-to-order conversion ratio was low compared to the industry average. This had cost repercussions as well as lost opportunities. The company identified the cause as inaccurate targeting of products to their customers. It subsequently implemented an enterprise resource planning (ERP) application and has been capturing data at every point of production as well as sales. They believe this accumulated data can help target their products accurately to the right clients and design an appropriate recommender system.

Learning Objectives The primary objective of the case is to illustrate how machine learning algorithms can be used to manage business-to-business (B2B) sales. The learning objectives include the following:

Access attached the full case or article. After a critical review of the case, respond to the questions below.

For a better understanding of the issues related to the problem, knowledge of data visualization using Tableau, R, or Python programming will be useful.
1. With the help of data visualization, provide key insights using exploratory data analysis.
2. What kind of analytics and machine learning algorithms can be used by Champo Carpets to solve their problems and in general, for value creation?
3. Develop ML models to help identify features that contribute toward conversion (or non-conversion) of samples sent to customers.
4. Discuss the data strategy for building customer segmentation using clustering. What are the benefits Champo Carpets can expect from clustering?
5. Discuss clustering algorithms that can be used for segmenting Champo Carpets’ customers.6. Develop customer segmentation using K-means clustering. Discuss the optimal number of clusters, significant variables, and cluster characteristics.
7. Discuss the data strategy that can be used for building recommender system models.
8. Develop an association rule mining algorithm, which can be used for recommendation.
9. Build collaborative filtering techniques for recommender systems.
10. What will be your final recommendations to Champo Carpets?
