Final Project

We were prompted to create a cybersecurity awareness campaign as our final project for this class. Initially we were given the options of a slideshow or poster however I opted to create a webpage for phishing awareness. This way it is located right on my website. The page itself resembles infamous online scams, with flashing lights and loud alarms going off, and big bold red text saying that you’re in danger and you need to submit information immediately. When users hit “submit”, they are transported to a page that provides extensive information on phishing, what it is and how to spot and avoid it. Users are provided a photosensitivity warning before proceeding. Regarding the target audience, ideally those who would click submit on a webpage like that would receive the information they need, meanwhile those who know better and therefore don’t need the info will just close the tab.

Star Topology

Star Toplogy

Star Topology is a network design where every end device (computers) is connected to a central hub (a switch, or router). The connections form a ‘star’ shape. This setup is common due to its simplicity and easier troubleshooting, though failure of the central hub would result in the entire networking going down. You need end-user devices, a central connecting device, and the necessary cabling (mostly twisted-pair Ethernet cables) to connect everything together in star topology. In order to configure this type of network in the Day 1 lab I had to use straight-through Ethernet cables to connect the computers to the central switch. Other than that, this type of network is very simple so not much detailed configuration is needed.
