Ethical Hacking projects examples using ns3

Ethical Hacking using ns3 tool projects are carried out by us. Get a good project support from us our service extends from thesis ideas and up to implementation. Below are some project examples on Ethical Hacking using ns3:

1. Simulating DDoS Attacks and Mitigation Techniques:
   • On a network, we will simulate various types of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
   • Implement different DDoS mitigation techniques and analyze the impact on rate limiting, blackholing, and traffic analysis.
2. Network Vulnerability Scanning:
   • Develop a network vulnerability scanner which detects common vulnerabilities in a simulated network.
   • Analyze the efficiency of the scanner in identifying vulnerabilities and suggest remediation techniques.
3. Penetration Testing Framework:
   • To simulate attacks such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and buffer overflow, create a penetration testing framework within ns3.
   • Here we must analyze the ability of the framework to detect and exploit vulnerabilities, and propose defense mechanisms.
4. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS):
   • Implement an IDS in ns3 for detecting different types of network intrusions, like port scanning, man-in-the-middle attacks, and unauthorized access.
   • We will be Examining  the accuracy and efficiency of the IDS to detect and respond to threats.
5. Wi-Fi Network Security:
   • On Wi-Fi networks, simulate attacks like WEP/WPA cracking, deauthentication attacks, and evil twin attacks.
   • Implement and test different security measures, which involves WPA3, MAC address filtering, and SSID hiding.
6. Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attack Simulation:
   • We will be Simulating MitM attacks where an attacker intercepts and possibly modifies the communication between two parties.
   • We msut Create countermeasures like SSL/TLS encryption, ARP spoofing detection, and secure key exchange protocols.
7. Phishing Attack Simulation and Detection:
   • Develop a phishing attack scenario for studying how phishing emails and fake websites can compromise security.
   • Implement anti-phishing techniques and assess the impact on email filtering, URL analysis, and user education programs.
8. Ransomware Attack Simulation:
   • Simulate a ransomware attack in a controlled network by understanding its propagation and effect.
   • Develop and recovery strategies and examine the improvements of these strategies such as data backups, encryption, and network segmentation.
9. IoT Device Security:
   • Simulate attacks on IoT devices, like device spoofing, data tampering, and firmware exploitation.
   • Our team will be Implementing  security measures such as device authentication, secure boot, and encrypted communication.
10. Firewall Evasion Techniques:
    • Simulate techniques which are used to evade firewalls, such as tunneling, fragmentation, and obfuscation.
    • Implement and evaluate advanced firewall configurations and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to counter these techniques.
11. Social Engineering Attack Simulation:
    • Simulate scenarios where social engineering techniques, that includes phishing, pretexting, and baiting, are utilized to compromise network security.
    • Assess the improvements of security awareness training and policies in preventing social engineering attacks.
12. Password Cracking Techniques:
    • We must Simulate password cracking techniques that includes brute force, dictionary attacks, and rainbow tables.
    • Develop and evaluate password policies, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and account lockout mechanisms to enhance security.
13. Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) Simulation:
    • To gain unauthorized access to a network, simulate APT attacks which includes stealthy, continuous, and targeted efforts.
    • Develop detection and response strategies, like threat hunting, network segmentation, and anomaly detection.
14. SSL/TLS Attacks and Mitigations:
    • Simulate attacks on SSL/TLS, including SSL stripping, BEAST, and Heartbleed.
    • Develop and test mitigation techniques, involving up-to-date SSL/TLS configurations, certificate pinning, and secure cipher suites.
15. DNS Security:
    • Simulate DNS-based attacks, that includes DNS spoofing, cache poisoning, and amplification attacks.
    • We must then implement and evaluate DNS security measures such as DNSSEC, response rate limiting (RRL), and secure DNS configurations.
16. Mobile Network Security:
    • On mobile networks, we then simulate attacks like IMSI catching, SMS interception, and rogue base stations.
    • Develop and test security measures such as encryption, secure communication protocols, and mobile device management (MDM) policies.
17. Blockchain Network Security:
    • Simulate attacks on blockchain networks, including 51% attacks, double spending, and smart contract vulnerabilities.
    • Implement and assess security measures such as consensus algorithm improvements, smart contract auditing, and decentralized security protocols.
18. Zero-Day Exploit Simulation:
    • To understand how unknown vulnerabilities can be exploited, simulate zero-day exploits.
    • Develop proactive security measures, that includes regular software updates, threat intelligence sharing, and behavior-based anomaly detection.
19. Data Exfiltration Techniques:
    • Simulate data exfiltration techniques, like covert channels, steganography, and data compression.
    • Develop and evaluate data loss prevention (DLP) systems, encryption, and network monitoring to prevent data theft.
20. Simulation of Security Incident Response:
    • Simulate a security incident response, from detection to containment, eradication, and recovery.
    • Analyze the improvements on incident response plans, communication protocols, and post-incident analysis.

Overall, we had an interesting summary on the examples of Ethical Hacking projects using ns3 such as data exfiltration techniques, zero-day exploit simulation etc. Also, we provide more project details of Ethical Hacking.
