Assessment Description

During this topic, the principles of Separation, Isolation, Encapsulation, Fail-Safe Defaults/Fail Secure, and Modularity would be implemented to help the network with layering defense security. This is important for the defense of the network.

Reference the following CYB-515 videos (located in the Class Resources) and handouts as needed to complete the lab:

• Operating System Administration and Patch Management
• Adding Windows 10 to the Network
• Installing Patches
• Creating Log On Policy
• Creating Group Policy

Provide screenshots to illustrate the installation of patches and updates of the server, the creation of the three security policies, configuration of the VPN, and the addition of the Windows 10 VM to the network. On each screenshot, include 1-2 sentences that summarize what the screenshot is illustrating.

Part 1:

In the virtual sandbox environment, you created in Topic 1 configure Microsoft Server to do the following:
