This paper presents a study made on network security
in an organization’s local area network (LAN). Intrusion
detection test in a campus network was performed using
penetration test methods and the results analyzed. The objectives
were to identify different form of network attacks and methods
used to capture the hacking. During the study, the risks and
attacks caused by hackers to the network were evaluated. The
results obtained are seen as a good indicator of the security state
of the network. Hence, an organization network that responds
well to penetration test can be given a certificate. Such certificate
will provide a positive sign and confidence to the network users.
The study was conducted in a dynamic situation by doing
experiments during different periods of time. The case study was
a campus LAN, The network administrator permitted network
information like internet protocol (IP) address to be gathered and
analyzed and to performed the penetration test that enabled ,
hackers and attackers methods to be dentified. It was realized
that 90% of network the users has no fear of the network security
risk inspite of the finding that network security rating of the case
study is at 50 percent. |
