Plan and organize internet infrastructures

Introduction
What is Internet Infrastructure?
All the hardware and services required to make a web page appear in your browser.
Internet infrastructure is a collective term for all hardware and software systems
that constitute essential components in the operation of the Internet. Physical
transmission lines of all types, such as wired, fiber optic and microwave links,
along with routing equipment, the accompanying critical software services like the
Domain Name System (DNS), Email, website hosting, authentication and
authorization, storage systems, and database servers are considered critical Internet
components
Internet Infrastructure consisting of:

1. Data Centre
A Data Centre is basically a specialist building that has the ability to power (and
cool) massive amounts of computer equipment. Typically a Data Centre would
also have a very large amount of network bandwidth to accommodate data transfer
in and out of it.
A data center is a centralized repository computer facility used to house computer
systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage
systems. It generally includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data
communications connections, environmental controls (e.g., air conditioning, fire
extinguisher) and security devices

2. Network
Most important foundation block of Internet Infrastructure is the Network.
Without a network connection no data can pass between Data Centers, over
the Internet, and

3. Internet Service Provider (ISP)

 Choosing the proper bandwidth and network connection (cable) is critical to
the site's web presence.
 The router and the communications interface (cable, modem, bridge or other
device) and the cables that connect them form the bridge from the Web
server to the outside world. Most of this equipment will be provided by the
Internet Service Provider, but as the site grows more equipment such as
switches, hubs, patch panels, wiring and firewalls will be needed

4. Computer Equipment
Computer equipment refers to any or all of the many different parts of a computer,
as well as peripheral devices such as printers, external hard drives and servers.
Basically, anything relating to a computer is considered computer equipment.

5. Storage Services
Data Storage is a huge part of Internet Infrastructure. All those emails accessible
online, all the web pages on your favorite web site, all those photos on Face book
… are all stored on a hard drive in a DC somewhere. The basic level of storage is
on-server storage, which means the hard drives in the computer server.

6. Server Applications

The final piece of underlying Internet Infrastructure is the server applications

themselves. In order for a web application to be delivered from a server, that server
requires
1. Operating System (typically Windows or Linux),
2. Web Server application (like Apache or Microsoft IIS), and
3. Database (such as My SQL, MS-SQL or Oracle).
There any many more variations here, but the basic web server has these 3 things.
From here you can install blog software, an ecommerce site, your new web 2.0
application, or any Internet capable piece of software (more include – Instant
Messaging Server, File Storage Server, Message Board)
7. Internet security
Management Controls:
Focus on security policies, planning, guidelines, and standards that influence the
selection of operational and technical controls to protect the organization
 Security policy
- A high level management document that describes the management’s
expectation of the employees’ security practice and responsibilities.
- It sets a clear direction and demonstrates the management’s support
for and commitment to information security.
 Background checking of employees
 Training/awareness
 Physical and environmental protection

Technical Controls:
