Information Officer) to provide
remote access to end users.
Among those end users are your
company’s sales force members
who are constantly on the road
and workers who request to
work from home. The sales
force is issued company laptops,
while other users will use their
own computers.
Create a proposal based on
Windows Server 2012 that
includes all of the following,
along with your justification.
1. Design a remote access that
can be used by the sales
force as well as other users.
2. Remote access should be
secured.
3. The laptops of the sales
force members need to be
checked to see if they have
the latest companyapproved patches and antivirus.
4. The other users’ computers
should be secured before
they are allowed remote
access.
Support your proposal
by discussing and citing
knowledge from the
assigned readings and
media along with any
outside sources you may
choose to bring into
your writing.
Your paper should be 34 pages in length with
document formatting
and citations of sources
in conformity with CSUGlobal guidelines for
APA Style.
