    The IT person at a small nanotechnology company needs to improve their security measures after winning a Department of Defense contract. Their current security includes a firewall, passwords, and basic backups. They plan to implement stronger password policies, employee training, unique IDs, improved firewalls, encryption, antivirus software, secure remote access, and a security policy covering employment from start to end.
