You are the cybersecurity professional for Company A and are responsible for protecting the information of the company. Your roles include managing the company’s cybersecurity capabilities and tools, conducting vulnerability management, and assessing risk to sensitive information. Company A has recently purchased Company B and wants to merge both networks.

Executives of Company A have tasked you with making risk-based decisions on integrating Company B’s network with Company A’s existing network. Company B has provided its latest vulnerability scans, network diagrams, and existing cybersecurity capabilities and tools. As a deliverable to the executives, you will submit your recommendations for a secure network design that merges the two networks and allows remote access for employees of both companies in the form of a merger and implementation plan.

For this project, you will use the given scenario and the following supporting documents to complete your network merger and implementation plan:

•  “Company A Network Diagram”

•  “Company A Risk Analysis”

•  “Company B Network Diagram”

•  “Company B Vulnerability Report and Cybersecurity Tools”

Scenario Company A is a global company based in the United States that operates in the financial industry. Company A serves its customers with financial products, such as checking accounts, bank cards, and investment products. Company A has recently acquired Company B and needs to integrate with or remove similar capabilities and tools from Company B. Company B is smaller in size, has no dedicated cybersecurity professional role, and utilizes third-party support for infrastructure needs. Company B offers specialized software to medical providers and accepts credit cards as a payment option.  The executives of the newly merged company have expressed interest in integrating the use of the cloud to allow for scalability and redundancy. As the security professional of the merged networks, you are tasked with creating a secure network design that includes the use of zero trust principles and that utilizes both on-premises and cloud infrastructure. You also have been tasked with ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements of the merged company, along with utilizing cloud-based technologies to provide security capabilities. Company executives have provided a budget of $50,000 in the first year to create a secure network design to utilize cloud-based services. Requirements Your submission must be your original work.

H.  Describe two emerging threats that are applicable to the merged organization, including the following in the description:  •   potential network security risks of implementing the topology  •   potential performance impacts on the merged network after implementation of the proposed design  •   how to manage the identified potential security risks  
I.  Summarize your recommendations for implementation of this proposed merged network based on the scenario and budgetary requirements, including the following in the summary:  •   a cost-benefit analysis for on-premises and cloud infrastructure solutions  •   a justification for your recommendations to implement the proposed secure merged network design  
J.  Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.   
K.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

I need a paper of around 100 to 200 words about “preferences for car choices in United States”(citations are required)???

and 

8 references among which 4 references must be scholarly peer reviewed articles???

 In my final tutorial I will discuss process management and the following resources in which process consist of job control functions that were first introduced by the C-shell, but later became implemented into modern UNIX systems, including how jobs that run in the background enable a user to enter commands, while a job is running in the background. In other areas we will look at the Linux operating system, which is both a multi-tasking and multi-user environment and has special background processes known as daemons that reside in both the Linux and UNIX systems, while daemons run in the background or foreground as we will examine. Throughout the UNIX like (OS) there is a process known as zombies that don’t disappear when a task is completed they reside in what is called the process table after an execution; our team will provide information on how to remove a zombie off the system. Other process commands that are utilized in both a UNIX like system and UNIX system; such as, security mechanisms’ that may either send signals to various processes or kill signals will be elaborated on.  This week’s information on utilities of UNIX/Linux systems known as process handling commands will display how different processes can be combined acting as a task manager using a ps (process status) and kill command. In closing, I will look at Background processing, cron, and at commands applications that are popular on the Linux operating system. 

There are three levels of management hierarchy: strategic, managerial and operational.

Part 1: Review at least 4 academically reviewed articles on each management hierarchy. Summary the articles in your own words.

Part 2: Discuss how the three levels of management hierarchy: strategic, management, and operational relates to the mission of a business.

Part 3: As an IT professional, how would you use information technology to improve the efficiency the three levels of management hierarchy?

For this assignment, you will be creating an 8-12 slide PowerPoint presentation that showcases 5-10 main components that make up a database. You can use a search engine or your textbook to help you find information about these components. Each slide should define and summarize each of the components and should provide information its role and purpose. You will need to provide a summary slide that describes how each component interconnects and/or interrelates to each other.

Note: If you use any references besides using your textbook while creating your presentation, be sure to provide a References Slide.
