Scope of Work:  

• Network vulnerability scanning (internal/external) 

• Identifying misconfigurations and outdated software 

• Identifying misconfigurations and outdated software 

• Assessing security patches and system hardening 

• Firewall and access control review 

• Reviewing network segmentation and data flow security 

Methodology: 

Reconnaissance – Gathering network data 

Scanning – Identifying vulnerabilities 

Exploitation – Simulated cyberattacks 

Analysis – Risk impact assessment 

Reporting – Mitigation recommendations 

Key Findings: 

Missing Security Headers – Web applications lacked key protections 

Insecure Cookies – Weak settings increased session hijacking risks. 

Weak Firewall Rules – Excessive open ports. 

Unpatched Systems – Outdated software posed security risks 

Poor Network Segmentation – Critical services were not isolated. 

Lack of MFA – Weak authentication mechanisms. 

Improper Access Control – Inadequate user role segregation. 

Recommendations: 

Implemented security headers for web applications. 

Set Secure & HttpOnly flags for cookies. 

Strengthened network segmentation. 

Applied security patches regularly. 

Optimized firewall rules & close unused ports. 

Enforced Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). 

Refined access control policies.
