Cyber Security Question

Hello, for this assignment do not use AI, and please follow the clear instructions concisely. I will attach the outline and assignment template below, fill all the information into the assignment template called “SDN and IBN Assignment Template”, do not make a brand-new document.

Scenario Overview

“We’re almost done with this paper,” Steve says, looking over a draft of your white paper on software-defined networking.

“I don’t know,” says Bill, another colleague on the team. “While we have Eliza’s attention, I think we should also let her know about intent-based networking (IBN). We could really benefit from the system performing more automated tasks and freeing us up to do other work.”

“Aren’t we already doing that with this SDN architecture?” asks Steve.

“It’s a little different,” Bill says. “They automate different tasks. SDN does more management, while IBN helps with improvements.”

“Got it. Let’s cover both of those bases for Eliza,” says Steve. Then, turning to you, he says, “You’ve done some solid work with this SDN section. Can you draft another piece for IBN architecture?”

Instructions

Software-defined networking (SDN) and intent-based networking (IBN) offer an ability to revolutionize the modern network architecture. Both of these concepts are relatively new, and your chief technology officer (CTO) has only heard them in passing. In fact, she pawned them off as the new marketing fad dressed up as a new concept. Since you have researched both technologies, you understand this is not a fad. When used in combination with virtualization and cloud computing, you know SDN and IBN could revolutionize how the organization operates, providing for reduced costs, efficiency, better management of the network assets, and security.

However, you need to develop a white paper for the Caduceus CTO to highlight these benefits. Given the CTO has only heard the term in passing, you must describe in this white paper, the SDN and IBN concepts, their benefits, and what it would take for the organization to implement.

Forming Your Teams

In addition to submitting your individual white paper here in Assignment 3, you will also begin to work with your team for the upcoming collaborative projects (Assignments 4 and 5). You should meet your team, brainstorm ideas for your white paper together, and begin planning your upcoming work.

Writing Your Paper

After you introduce yourself to your team and brainstorm ideas for this assignment, refer to the for more details about Caduceus and download the assignment template.

In your white paper, use additional sources of information but also describe the concept in laymans terms. Use visuals where appropriate. Describe how an SDN/IBN architecture would look different than network architectures we have traditionally deployed. Compare and contrast the network architectures and discuss the pros and cons of each.

The paper should include the following sections:

  • introduction to software-defined networking (SDN) (discussed in Week 3)
  • introduction to intent-based networking (IBN) (discussed in Week 4)
  • discussion on how virtualizing the desktop and now back-end infrastructure are complementary and related
  • discussion of how SDN and IBN are related
