About the organization: This fictional organization has a small, but growing, employee base, with 50 employees in one small office.

An external website permitting users to browse and purchase widgets
An internal intranet website for employees to use
Secure remote access for engineering employees
Reasonable, basic firewall rules
Wireless coverage in the office
Reasonably secure configurations for laptops
Since this is a retail company that will be handling customer payment data, the organization would like to be extra cautious about privacy. They don't want customer information falling into the hands of an attacker due to malware infections or lost devices.
Engineers will require access to internal websites, along with remote, command line access to their workstations.
