Part 6 – Using Internet Explorer, open Internet Options under the Tools Menu. Examine the contents of the Security and Privacy tabs. How can these tabs be configured to provide: a) content filtering, and b) protection from unwanted items like cookies?
Part 7: What architecture for deploying a firewall is most commonly used in business today? Why? Give examples. What are the reasons that VPN technology has become the dominant method for remote workers to connect to the organizational network?
Part 8: In this module, you will produce another key component of your security plan, the Access Control Policy.
Using the airport case we have established in module three, using what you have learned in this module, and using the Web for examples of Access Control Policies, create an Access Control Policy applicable to your airport project. You may use the Access Control Template (.docx) as a guide or modify it as applicable to write your Access Control Policy.
