Introduction
In this project, I will be discussing not only the current requirements of ABC Company
but also those arising in the future with a view to building a better business culture for them.
Currently, each of the four territories - North, West, East, and South - is operated independently,
so to achieve our goal, we must be able to integrate the technological and informational systems
so that they can be operated as a single, unified entity instead of as independent entities. The aim
of this research is to examine the current infrastructure of information technology (IT) at ABC
Company, the business system technology that it uses, as well as its cyber security measures.
Since the majority of these are no longer accurate, I will be offering some suggestions to help
this organization achieve their goals in the best way possible.
Hardware Platform
To support ABC Company's infrastructure, physical server computers are currently being
used. There is a combination of computers from Dell and HP, and each location is responsible
for maintaining their own database and equipment, as well as maintaining their own
computers. As I was doing my research, I came to learn that they are currently using a variety of
different server systems, and all of them are unable to make the transition to the cloud due to
their limitations. A combination of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2012 is
currently used for these platforms. Since both servers are not up to date, as a result, they pose a
threat to the security of ABC Company.
As a first step, I would recommend changing over to servers that are hosted in the cloud
as a first step. The ABC Company has stated that they would prefer to stay away from the
enormous expenditures that would be entailed in purchasing and managing a complete
infrastructure to minimize their costs. In addition to the pay-as-you-go model that is being used
