There will be a late penalty of 5% off per day late!
Fred Krueger has recently discovered that his company's web server has been broken into by the crafty CMSC389R ethical hackers. After reading your published report, Fred has reached out to you to seek guidance in how he can repair some of the vulnerabilities that you have discovered. Choose 3 specific vulnerabilities from homework 2 that you have identified (ie. exposed ports, weak passwords, etc.) and write a brief summary of some suggestions you can provide Fred for the Cornerstone Airlines web server and admin server. Be as thorough as possible in your answer, use specific examples and citing online research into security techniques that could be applied to the servers (ie. firewall, IDS/IPS, password managers, etc.).
The submission should be answered in bullet form or full, grammatical sentences. It should also be stored in week/3/writeup/README.md
. Push it to your GitHub repository by the deadline.
Part 1 is worth 100 points. The rubric with our expectations can be found on the ELMS assignment posting.
Good luck!
