Imagine you are an Information Security consultant for a small
college registrar’s office consisting of the registrar and two (2)
assistant registrars, two (2) student workers, and one (1)
receptionist. The office is physically located near several other
office spaces. The assistant registrars utilize mobile devices
over a wireless network to access student records, with the
electronic student records being stored on a server located in
the building. Additionally, each registrar’s office has a desktop
computer that utilizes a wired network to access the server and
electronic student records. The receptionist station has a
desktop computer that is used to schedule appointments, but
cannot access student records. In 1974, Congress enacted the
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) to help
protect the integrity of student records. The college has hired
you to ensure technical safeguards are appropriately designed
to preserve the integrity of the student records maintained in
the registrar’s office.

Analyze proper physical access control safeguards and provide

sound recommendations to be employed in the registrar’s
office.

unauthorized entities from accessing sensitive information,
and explain why you suggested each method.
Analyze the means in which data moves within the organization
and identify techniques that may be used to provide
transmission security safeguards.
