It’s moving into a new facility and will be installing a new network. Because competition is fierce in the game industry, SanGrafix wants to be fully secured, documented, and maintained while providing high availability, scalability, and performance.

Based on your current technology and information security knowledge, for this project you will design a BCP based off of the company profile below:

D. Full OC3 Internet connection
