Solutions by Business Boutique Hotel
Boutique Hotel
A boutique hotel has 150 workstations, 6 manager laptops, and 10 servers. They have two T1 Internet connections and have out-sourced their guest wireless to a third party. Since their property management system and point of sale system collect and store credit card data, the servers and computers that access the property management and point of sale applications are considered part of the cardholder data network under the PCI DSS standard and must be properly segmented. They would like to do the following:
- Deploy an administrative wireless network in their conference room and in the common areas for remote check-in.
- Comply with the network segmentation guidelines set forth by the PCI DSS standard.
- Implement bandwidth sharing and fail-over between the two T1 Internet connections.
- Implement secure remote access for their management team.
- Implement off-site backups for their laptops and all their critical data.
