Description
As per Hardening Network Devices National Security Agency Cybersecurity Information, below points are covers in this Course.
The possibility of unwanted access to a network's infrastructure is decreased by hardening network equipment. A malicious cyber actor might take advantage of flaws in device management and configurations to establish presence and maintain persistence within a network. Adversaries are increasingly focusing on targeting specialized and embedded devices, such as routers and switches, rather than only standard endpoints. They achieve this by managing routing protocols, exploiting configuration flaws, and introducing malware into the operating systems.
In the cybersecurity world, that means making that device more secure and resilient to attacks. By hardening a device, you are making it more difficult to break into for hackers.
Minimizing attack surface, or surface of vulnerability, and potential attack vectors
Hardening the Firewall Configuration
Hardening the Network devices Firewalls, Routers and Switches etc
The possibility of unwanted access to a network's infrastructure is decreased by hardening network equipment.
Management interface is kept secure, and access is limited to only those administrators that need access.
Accessing internet resources from offline management
Admin accounts also need to be set so they only have access to the sections of the configuration they need to access and use external authentication.
Password security
Keep Content and Software Updates Current Patch vulnerability
Set up notifications for system and configuration log messages
Monitor system and configuration logs
Practical Firewall Penetration Testing
Firewall penetration testing is the process of locating, investigating and penetrating a certain firewall in order to reach the internal trusted network of a certain system.
Mostly considered to be a key part in external network penetration testing, firewall In this video we discussed the below points.
