Describe the basic concepts and uses of virtual systems and networks Scenario As a security analyst, you are tasked with creating a concept brief for your system administrator.

Virtual Systems Project
One of the main projects for this course is the creation of a virtual systems and networking concept brief in which you will configure operating systems in a simulated environment as a proof of concept before implementing changes in the live production environment. This work is often referred to as “sandboxing.” As a security analyst, you will be asked to install and configure new settings within a virtualized environment. The audience for this brief is the system administrator for a fictional organization at which you are employed. This brief will serve as the basis for a proposal that your manager will be creating to propose a new network configuration.
You have also been asked to provide a level of justification around the basic concepts of virtual systems so that your system administrator can include that in a proposal to other organizational stakeholders. The project leverages the skills that you have built using tools in Modules Two and Three. The project will be submitted in Module Five. Access the GNS3 environment by navigating to the Project One – Virtual Systems and Networking Concept Brief lab. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course competency: ? CYB-220-01:
Describe the basic concepts and uses of virtual systems and networks Scenario As a security analyst, you are tasked with creating a concept brief for your system administrator. This task includes creating multiple accounts, configuring network settings, and modifying group policies. To help you complete this task, your instructor will provide you with a scenario containing network configuration settings and group policy changes that you will need to implement. Additionally, you will be asked to describe the benefits and drawbacks of virtualization technology. Prompt Address the critical elements listed below. The codes shown in brackets indicate the course competency to which each critical element is aligned. Virtual Systems and Networking Concept Brief I.
Using Virtual Systems A. Configure group policy settings to meet project specifications. Provide screenshots from the local group policy editor dialog box as evidence of each change.
B. Configure network resources to meet the network configuration settings. Provide a screenshot of each network setting configuration. II. Conceptual Justification for Uses of Virtual Systems
A. Describe the benefits of using virtualization technology in sand boxing.
B. Describe the drawbacks of using virtualization technology in sand boxing.
