Case Study 2: Security in Bluetooth and Other Mobile Devices

Beforesupporting mobile and wireless devices, organizations need to ensurethat they have analyzed the potential security and implementation issuesassociated with those devices. Additionally, they need to ensure thatthey have taken the proper precautions and implemented the propersecurity controls to mitigate vulnerabilities. Read NIST Draft SP 800-164, Guidelines on Hardware-Rooted Security in Mobile Devices, located at http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/drafts/800-164/sp800_164_draft.pdf.

Write a 4–5-page paper in which you do the following:

1. Basedon what you read in the NIST SP 800-164 publication, select an industry(such as banking, finance, education, or healthcare) and assess thesecurity risks and vulnerabilities associated with mobile devices inthis environment. Describe the security controls that this industryneeds to implement to mitigate wireless vulnerabilities.
2. Assessthe strategic implications of deciding to implement wireless and mobiletechnologies in the selected industry environment.
3. Analyzethe factors that business managers must consider when determining ifwireless and mobile devices are appropriate in their businessenvironment.
4. Establishingmultiple layers of defense is important in security. Describe why andhow the different types of security controls are necessary to mitigatepotential security issues. Describe how the types of radio signals andthe structure of wireless and cellular networks impact the security ofwireless networks.
5. Createa network architecture diagram depicting the layers of securitycontrols to mitigate security threats in a large corporate environmentthrough the use of graphical tools in Microsoft Word or Visio or anopen-source alternative such as Dia. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
6. Use at least four quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

• Betyped, double-spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with 1-inchmargins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA orschool-specific format. Check with your professor for any additionalinstructions.
• Includea cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’sname, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The coverpage and the reference page are not included in the required assignmentpage length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are as follows:

• Discuss the various types of radio waves and propagation in wireless networks.
• Analyze the structure and model of cellular networks.
• Analyze the network protocols and security mechanisms in wireless networks.
