SIMULATION

You are a security analyst tasked with interpreting an Nmap scan output from company's privileged network.

The company's hardening guidelines indicate the following:

There should be one primary server or service per device.

Only default ports should be used.

Non-secure protocols should be disabled.

INSTRUCTIONS

Using the Nmap output, identify the devices on the network and their roles, and any open ports that should be closed.

For each device found by Nmap, add a device entry to the Devices Discovered list, with the following information:

The IP address of the device

The primary server or service of the device (Note that each IP should by associated with one service/port only)

The protocol(s) that should be disabled based on the hardening guidelines (Note that multiple ports may need to be closed to comply with the hardening guidelines)

Wait, is that an FTP server on port 21? Someone's been watching too many old hacker movies.

Hmm, I bet the network admin had a long night trying to figure this one out. Glad I'm not the one cleaning up this mess.

I'm seeing a lot of open ports that need to be locked down. This is why we have hardening guidelines, people!
