Additions to Knowledge, standards achieved & evidence: ITIL Exam pass certificate. Better understanding of how iT should work and what processes go into running different iT departments.
This month I have been giving a new project the network overview portal, this project is to audit the current Data Centre collect and consolidate network information such as IP address, server name & maintenance contract and create an interactive area to display live network information. The start of this project I collected all the relevant data and stored it in an excel spreadsheet making the spreadsheet interactive with a little code, collecting the information is time consuming so this will be an ongoing project, once completed I can start looking at how to display all the live information in one easy to use area.
I am still going through the iso security project at the moment I have just managed to set the project up in a Microsoft project plan and have some meetings with the iT Director to organise what can be done. This is still an ongoing project and takes a low priority as it does not need to be completed when I am here my main responsibility is to set the project up so someone else can come in and take over it easily.
15 – 17 September 2008 – ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) this was a 3 days training course with an exam at the end of it, I completed the training course and passed the exam with 85%

Supervisor: Andy Brightwell (Team leader Projects)
Targets: ISO Security Project, Logon Script, Phone List
Activities: Using Microsoft Project to Start Security Project, Using Excel to create a Phone list, and programming a logon script using Kixtart.
Achievements: Programmed logon script, and created phone list
Achievements v Targets: Completed logon script and phone list, ISO Project ongoing
New Targets: Network Overview Portal, ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) Training course & Exam
Additions to Knowledge, standards achieved & evidence: Understanding of ISO project and how the business can improve by adopting and improving its security standards, learnt how to program a logon script using Kixtart.
I was given a task by Gareth to amend the log on script so that when people log on, it will check what operating system they have, if they have windows 2000 it will write the output to a text file so these computers can be tracked down and replaced. As I had never used kixtart I began by reading what the program did and how to use it then writing basic programs to test, once I was confident I could use the program I set about writing the kixtart file and tested it using a virtual machine, the task turned out to be fairly easy and I gave the file to Gareth and implemented it into the current log on script job done!
The phone list was a time filler, which I used excel to create the list with a search button and a little code so that it would find peoples names.
ISO security project is the results of an external security auditor coming into the business and checking all areas of the business for security compliance and what needs improving, my job on this is to set out the project plan with the audits recommendations for improvement and start the ball rolling. This will be a large project spanning over two years and as I wont be here for two years my main responsibility is to get the project set up correctly so someone else can easily take over from me.
