Network and Systems Hardening

Network hardening Make sure your firewall is correctly configured, that all rules are periodically reviewed, that remote access points and users are secure, that any open network ports are blocked, that extraneous protocols and services are disabled and removed, that access lists are in place, and that network data is encrypted. Systems Hardening Audit your current systems: Conduct a thorough audit of your current technologies (you can use). To identify system weaknesses and order remedies, use security auditing techniques like configuration management, vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing. Utilize industry standards from NIST, Microsoft, CIS, DISA, and other sources to conduct system hardening assessments against resources. Create a strategy for systems hardening: Not every system needs to be hardened at once. Instead, develop a strategy and plan based on the risks found in your IT ecosystem, and then utilize a staged approach to fix the most serious issues. Patch ...

Evading IDS, Firewalls, and Honeypots

 There are two main types of IDS s based on where the security team sets them up: Network intrusion detection system (NIDS). Host intrusion detection system (HIDS).

A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies

A honeypot is a cybersecurity mechanism that uses a manufactured attack target to lure cybercriminals away from legitimate targets

Honeypot Tools - HoneyBOT , MegaPing

Intrusion Detection Tools - Snort

HTTP Tunneling Tools - HTTHost , HTTPort
