This report discusses the use of network security tools like nmap and metasploit for identifying network threats and mitigating them. It also covers threat mitigation techniques like network segmentation, deployment of a firewall, application of patch, encryption of the network channel, and creation of VPN channel. The report provides a detailed literature review and a conclusion on the effectiveness of these tools and techniques.

Identifying Network Threats using Network Security Tools

The objective of this assignment is to identify network threats using network assessment (with security tools). The assignment requires explaining the major methodologies for secure networks and the threats they address, as well as identifying and reporting network threats and implementing appropriate countermeasures for network security.

Learn about network security tools like nmap and metasploit for identifying network threats and mitigating them. Read about threat mitigation techniques and strategies.

This report discusses the use of Nmap and Metasploit in identifying vulnerabilities in home network systems and how to mitigate them. It also provides a literature review on penetration testing and vulnerability assessment. The report includes a case study on VNC server penetration testing and strategies for mitigating VNC vulnerability risk.
