Websites are the most vulnerable services on an organization’s network. Performing a vulnerability assessment on these services is critical. Often a compromised website/server is the perfect jumping off point for an attacker to pivot into the rest of a network.
- Using GCU Approved Virtualization Solution and BurpSuite or other website vulnerability assessment tool available in Kali Linux, perform a website vulnerability assessment on the Metasploitable 2 VM.
- Document findings under Phase Testing in the “PEN Testing Report Guidelines,” located in the Course Materials. Refer to the SANS Institute industry-standard “Writing a Penetration Testing Report,” for examples of PEN Testing Report.
- Append this assignment to the PEN testing report and resubmit the report (Passive Corporate Recon + Automating Information RECON + NMap Scan + Vulnerability Assessment + Applied Exploitation using Metasploit + Custom Payload + Website Vulnerability Assessment).
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
