Question

IT education

Good day. I had difficulties with writing a diploma on the topic "Installing and configuring network security tools" Tell me which program is best to take for my thesis?
And what information can be thrown into it, preferably with a link to the source, so that you can dig into it.

Answer 1

1. Draw the network architecture.
2. Describe potential vulnerabilities.
3. Describe methods for fixing vulnerabilities. The question is, what exactly does your degree imply? All in the context of "confidentiality, integrity, availability" or just one thing?
4. Means of authentication/authorization (any LDAP).
5. Control of outgoing / incoming traffic, etc. (iptables/MS Forefront)
6. Failover (if required)
