Purpose of Assignment
Assignment 1 is based on analyzing cyber security vulnerabilities using ethical hacking methodologies and evaluating security testing tools. The students will explore skills in Ethical Hacking/Penetration testing by describing how weakness in the system can be exploited to hack a target system using security testing tools.
Assignment Structure and submission guidelines
Assignment 1 is a formative assessment, and it focuses on the importance of penetration testing, industry leading tools used for penetration testing and a review of security testing tools. Students will be required to choose two security testing tools for further evaluation. The students will implement and demonstrate building a Software Test platform, the weaknesses in the system, how to exploit those weaknesses and hack the system using the 2 security testing tools you choose to demonstrate. Write and submit a report for Assignment 1.
Assignment Tasks
- Describe the importance of ethical hacking? (5 Marks)
- There are several security testing tools available in the market. Present the industry leading tools used for penetration testing? (5 Marks)
- Demonstrate two cyber security tools during Week 3 Lab after reviewing a minimum of 3 security testing tools and presenting the snapshots in your Assignment 1 report.
(12 Marks for Demonstration + 5 Marks for report writing)
Note: The students will implement and demonstrate building a Software Test platform, the weaknesses in the system, how to exploit those weaknesses and hack the system using the 2 security testing tools you choose to demonstrate.
- References (3 Marks)
