Needs+Analysis

toc =What's the Issues?=

Bombers is a fast paced environment and thousands of transactions are processed daily. Due to the high number of transactions security is a major risk. The network is unprotected leaving customer's personal information vulnerable. The physical hardware has become outdated and there is no real management of the network. While the network is used for a small percent of the companies day to day operations it is still a necessity. At some points the network will drop and time will be wasted restarting the system. This will cause the Maitre D software to crash causing delay of sales.

The network is used for:
 * 1) Customers who come in to eat and want to do their work via company wifi
 * 2) Connect office to internet for management duties
 * 3) Connect Maitre D POS systems for sales
 * 4) Connecting customers to Bombers through "Mealeo," an online ordering system.

Course of Actions:
In our efforts to diminish these issues we have come up with the following course of actions:
 * 1) Secure the wireless network. Enable WPA-2, create a secure password, enable firewall protection
 * 2) Install security software for viral needs
 * 3) Install network management tools
 * 4) Update out-of-date hardware to increase network efficiency, speed, and consistency
