Question
Please read this scenario prior to answering the question Your role is that of an Enterprise Architect, reporting to the Chief Enterprise Architect, at a technology company. The company provides staff, as well as cloud-based services for many government agencies. The company uses the TOGAF standard as the method and guiding framework for its Enterprise Architecture (EA) practice. The Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is the sponsor of the activity. The practice uses an iterative approach for its architecture development. This has enabled the decision makers to gain valuable insights into the different aspects of the business. The nature of the business is such that the data and the information stored on the company systems is the company’s major asset and is highly confidential. The company employees work remotely and need constant access to the company systems, which is done by the public infrastructure. They use message encryption, secure internet connections using Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and other standard security measures. The company has provided computer security awareness training for all its staff. The Chief Security Officer (CSO) has noted an increase in distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on companies with a similar profile. The CSO understand that even with thorough preparation, a major attack could stop employees from being able to do their jobs. This could lead to a large financial loss, damage to the company’s reputation with customers, and employees being unable to work.

Explanation
The TOGAF standard recommends formally assessing business continuity requirements and identifying gaps in the current architecture. Based on the findings, a change request is submitted and evaluated by the Architecture Board, and if approved, a Request for Architecture Work is created to initiate a new ADM cycle. This approach ensures traceability, governance, and proper planning to improve the architecture’s resilience and data protection capabilities.
