Extended Cyber Defense Architecture for a University : A Case Study

The paper deals with cyber defense architecture and its possible implementation for a campus-wide network. It gives an extensive case study to secure the critical online information from internal and external malicious attacks. Under this case study, different security measures and their usage are presented in two categories. The first category is about creating awareness through education, and the second is through engineering architecture. These two categories of security measures are implemented at different specific discrete points in the network. All the possible discrete points and the detailed specifications to implement the security measures on them are discussed. Finally, the overall design of the secure cyber defense architecture is presented
