For your initial post, consider the following business problem:
Your organization has been very concerned with the recent data breaches across the United States. The chief executive officer (CEO) has summoned his executives to look at IDSs/IPSs to help protect the organization’s computing infrastructure. As an IT manager for the organization, you have been asked to attend the meeting with your chief information officer (CIO). In the meeting, your CIO projected the network diagram and announced that the IT department will purchase five IDS/IPS. There are three main types of IDSs/IPSs—host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS), network-based intrusion detection system (NIDS), and wireless intrusion detection system (WIDS). In your initial post, select a total of five IDSs/IPSs from the three main types of IDSs/IPSs, and explain how each of your selections will protect the infrastructure depicted in the diagram.
In addition, you have been tasked with explaining to a team of executives, in layman’s terms, where you will strategically place the five IDSs/IPSs and how each placement will best serve the organization. For this portion of the interactive assignment, you will create a five-minute maximum screencast presentation of a PowerPoint that provides this explanation. For the screencast portion you may use any screencasting platform you wish. (Quick-start guides for Screencast-O-Matic and Jing are provided for your convenience.)
Create your PowerPoint presentation including the following elements.
State the problem from the CEO’s perspective.
Explain in layman’s terms the design and use of IDS/IPS within the network, including the specific locations for each chosen system.
Justify the use of the chosen IDSs and how these will protect the various subnets of the network.
Explain how each of these solutions presented can address the CEO’s concerns.
Include visual enhancements in your presentation. These may include appropriate images, a consistent font, appropriate animations, and transitions from content piece to content piece and slide to slide.

It is recommended that you access Garr Reynolds’s Top Ten Slide TipsLinks to an external site. that provides useful assistance with creating successful PowerPoint presentations.
After you have created your PowerPoint, you will create a screencast of your presentation using the screencasting software or platform of your choice. (Quick-start guides for Screencast-O-MaticLinks to an external site. and JingLinks to an external site. are provided for your convenience.) Your screencast may be three to five minutes long, but it may not exceed five minutes. (It is highly recommended that you create a script and/or speaker’s notes for your PowerPoint to ensure that your screencast will meet the time requirements. This will also allow you to practice your presentation prior to recording it.) Once your screencast has been created, copy and paste the URL to your screencast into the initial post and attach your PowerPoint presentation to the post prior to submitting.
