After reading chapter 1, investigate what Attack Surfaces are and how they affect the design of a network. What does Defense in Depth really mean and how does it protect the assets of an organization?

You are also required to post a response to a minimum of two other students in the class.

You must use at least one scholarly resource.

Every discussion posting must be properly APA formatted.

Your initial response is due by Thursday of each week of the course and you must respond to a minimum of two other learners during the week.

Your responses to other students must be more than a simple “Good job” or “I agree with your post”. They must also not just be “Let me add to your post…” Instead, your responses to each other should do three things:

1. Acknowledge the other student’s post with some form of recognition about what they posted
2. Relate their posting to something you have learned or are familiar with
3. Add to the conversation by asking additional questions about their post, or discussing their topic further

Remember, this is a discussion forum. Your engagement with each other should be similar to how you would speak with each other if you were seated at the same table talking. Plagiarism in the discussion will not be tolerated.
