PROJECT

• Cybersecurity plays a vital role in protecting systems from unauthorized access and
security threats.
• This project aims to perform Network and Port Scanning and Password Strength Analysis to
identify potential vulnerabilities in a controlled virtual environment.
• The tasks will be conducted using Nmap for scanning and Ophcrack for password analysis.
• The objective is to understand security loopholes and implement countermeasures to
mitigate risks.
PROBLEM STATEMENT

• Modern systems are vulnerable to unauthorized access and security threats.


• Lack of regular network scanning and password security analysis can lead
to serious breaches.
• Need to identify open ports and vulnerable services that can be exploited
by attackers.
• Weak passwords stored in Security Account Manager (SAM) files pose a risk
if not properly secured.
• Without preventive measures, organizations are exposed to risks like data theft,
service disruption, and financial losses.
TOOLS USED AND OPERATING
SYSTEMS

Tools Used
• Nmap: For network and port scanning
• Ophcrack: For password strength analysis and cracking
• VirtualBox/VMware: For creating a controlled virtual test environment

Operating Systems Used


• Windows 10: Used as the hacker machine to perform scanning operations
• Kali Linux: Target (victim) machine for network and port scanning
• Windows 7: Target (victim) machine for scanning and password cracking

COUNTERMEASURES
WORKING
1. Install Nmap:
•Download and install Nmap on the Windows 10 machine from nmap.org.
•Ensure the installation is successful and the tool is accessible via the command line.
2. Identify Target IP Addresses:
•On the Windows machine, use the ipconfig command to identify its own IP.
•On the Kali Linux or Windows 7 target machines, use the ifconfig or ipconfig
commands to locate their IPs.
•Note the IP addresses of all machines in the test environment.
erform a Basic Port Scan:
n the command from the Windows machine.
•-sS conducts a stealth SYN scan to check for open ports.
•-O detects the operating system of the target machine.
s scan identifies the active services and ports without establishing full connections.
erform a Full Port Scan:
the command to scan all 65,535 ports on the target machine.
ntify any unexpected or unnecessary open ports that could be potential vulnerabilities.
CONCLUSION

The network and port scanning process provides critical insights into the security posture of
systems within a controlled environment. By using Nmap to identify open ports and services,
potential vulnerabilities can be detected, enabling proactive measures to strengthen system
defenses.
Key takeaways include:
• Open ports and unnecessary services increase exposure to threats.
• Detailed analysis helps in identifying specific weaknesses, such as unpatched software or
misconfigured services.
• Implementing countermeasures like firewalls, regular updates, and intrusion detection
systems significantly reduces risk.
• This procedure underscores the importance of continuous monitoring and a layered security
approach to protect against evolving cyber threats.
FUTURE SCOPE
•Automation: Automate scans for real-time monitoring and alerts in large-scale
networks.
•AI Integration: Use AI/ML for predictive analysis and smarter threat detection.
•Cloud & IoT Security: Adapt scanning techniques for cloud systems and IoT
devices.
•Incident Response: Integrate scanning results to enhance breach
preparedness.
•Advanced Detection: Link open ports with CVEs for deeper vulnerability
analysis.
•Compliance: Ensure regulatory compliance through detailed scanning reports.
•Education: Promote hands-on training for professionals in controlled
environments
