2. Introduction
Diamond Hands Holdings Inc. offers multiple customers with different services in
the realm of information technology. Because they offer services in the realm of
information technology, a continuous effort regarding the evaluation, protection,
and service must be a priority for the company. The Security Services Plan (SSD)
created for Diamond Hands Holdings Inc. covered all three racks in the Appendix
B Asset Inventory. Because the DDHI Secured Server Data Center consists of
different departments and uses different sources to perform day to day operations
for the company, I had to deeply analyze each area. The receiver of service,
frequency, justification, expenditure, and cost recovery for each service in the
directory are crucial to the operations design needed to protect the organization’s
assets and risks.
The purpose of this Security Operations Design is to provide the customers of
Diamond Hands Holding, Inc. (DHHI) with a comprehensive list of all security
operations deliverables and the improvement of how they operate in using the
platform. Threats to information and data are constantly occurring, and it is crucial
that DHHI follows this plan to protect the company, the stakeholders, and all
customers.

5. Projected Revenue
$150 MILLION
• We project to continue to grow this number
as our strategic plans are put into place. The
budget allocation of only $50,000 to start
our plans includes recruitment costs,
training expenses, consultant fees,
technology investments, and other relevant
expenditures. Our appropriate resource
allocation and implementation of all
projects will only increase the revenue of
DHHI.
6. Current Security Operations
Contingency Planning, Incident Response, and
Discovery Recovery
Contingency planning involves the preparing
for potential disruptions, disasters, or
unforeseen events that could impact the
normal operations of an organization. The
Incident response is the process of effectively
handling and managing security incidents or
breaches when they occur. Disaster recovery
focuses on restoring the organization's IT
infrastructure and systems after a significant
disruptive event, such as a natural disaster,
hardware failure, or cyber-attack, that causes
widespread system outages or data loss.
DHHI has an established plan that
incorporates all the above areas to ensure
the integrity and confidentiality of the
company.
Encryption
Encryption is the process of converting data
into a coded form known as ciphertext and
making it unintelligible to unauthorized users.
This is essential for companies to have as it
helps them protect sensitive information and
ensure data confidentiality. DHHI has
implement many solutions and detection
services that detect and handle files that
come in that are malware.
Other Operations: Antivirus,
Authentication Applications, Email and
Messaging Use, Ethics Policy, and
Firewall
7. Intended Security Operations
Risk Management
DHHI should assess the risk
management of their infrastructure
so they can assess the protentional
threats, assists, vulnerability, and
controls of the information systems
they are using and compare it to the
occurrence of certain threats they
are at risk of. Risk management is
the process of identifying, assessing,
and prioritizing risks to an
organization and then taking the
appropriate actions to mitigate or
manage those risks effectively. It
involves understanding potential
threats and vulnerabilities,
evaluating the potential impact of
risks, and implementing strategies
to reduce or eliminate them.
Physical and
Environmental
Security
• Physical and environmental
security focuses on protecting
an organization's physical
assets, facilities, and the
surrounding environment from
unauthorized access, damage,
and disruptions. It involves
implementing measures to
secure the physical premises,
equipment, data centers, and
other critical infrastructure
components. DHHI should
make sure their server rooms
are secured to only people
who should be able to enter.
They should hire security to
protect the physical office, as
well as a virtual security
system that looks out for
breaches and attacks.
Camera, motion detectors,
and security alarms are also
very important features to be
added.
Compliance &
Regulatory
• Compliance and
Regulatory
compliance consists
of multiple audits and
assessment being
performed to ensure
the company and its
staff members are
staying up to date on
all laws, regulations,
and certification
measures.

• Open the Design
Ideas pane for

makeovers.
• When we have
design ideas, we’ll
show them to you
right there.
The improvement program
shows a breakdown over the
next 5 years that analyzes which
areas need to be improved upon.
In each area the operations team
will need to track the
occurrences, the effects,
ownership, resource estimates,
due dates, completion, and
status. In the span of five years,
there should be a decrease in
risk in the areas we are worried
about in terms of security and
compliance.
11. Summary
The DDHI Security Operations Plan covers
every area DHHI should consider mitigating
risks, prevent breaches, reduce threats to
information assets, reduce
downtime/recovery time and data loss, and
ensure compliance at all levels. The
approach is created with the intent and
understanding of DHHI’s services and
information systems. The services are
intended to protect the company,
employees, clients, and stakeholders.
Implementing these facilities will reduce
risk, reduce overhead, reduce time, and act
as an aid in the recovery and planning of
potential attacks that could occur. The cyber
security, physical security, and digital
security DHHI and the implementation of the
above services is critical and crucial to
providing a secure environment to DHHI’s
staff, contractors, vendors, and clients.
