Management - You Are Assessment Answer

You are required to submit a report that includes the following: 1. As described in the case study above, the Web Server is experiencing a cyber attack. Explain a potential scenario where a cyber attack could occur against the Web Server. Ensure you explicitly state any assumptions made and the attack is described in technical detail. You are encouraged to use the network diagram provided to add annotations to support your answer. (Please Note: here you are describing a hypothetical scenario.) 2. Propose a solution to prevent the cyber attack you have described in task 1. Ensure you do adequate research, justify your solutions and substantiate with relevant evidence. You are encouraged to use the network diagram provided to add annotations to support your answer. (Please Note: You are expected to propose a solution to the hypothetical scenario. You are not required to implement this solution at any stage of this case study. Your answer to this task will depend on your response to Task 1.) 

3. List potential evidence that can be acquired using the IDS to support the preliminary findings. Here evidence means, any information that can be gathered using the snort IDS to assist in identifying the source/nature of the cyber attack. (Please Note: that you are not required to look for evidence in the VMs provided as there are none to be found. You are only required to described what "could" be found, which would be useful evidence for the investigation. E.g. IDS log file is an obvious answer. What else would be useful. An IDS generates/can capture other information that can be useful in addition to log files. Furthermore, consider other network devices or servers or applications in the case study provided, that
