Cyber Security Virtual Network for School

Job ID: 38804229

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I need a virtual network for a school project that focuses on cyber security. The primary purpose of this network is to simulate cyber attacks, which will help in understanding how these attacks are carried out and how to defend against them.

Key functionalities required in the virtual network:
- Collaborative tools: These will be used to facilitate group work and discussions.
- Resource sharing: This includes sharing of files, software and other resources necessary for the project.
- Network simulation: This is crucial as it will allow us to recreate real-world network scenarios.
- Firewall Implementation: Set up a robust firewall to monitor and control incoming and outgoing network traffic.
- VPN Setup: Integrate a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to secure remote connections and protect data.
- User Authentication: Implement secure user authentication to manage access and maintain security.
- Incident Response: Establish an incident response plan to address potential security incidents effectively.
- Phishing Simulation: Design functionality to simulate phishing attacks for educational purposes.
- Data Encryption: Ensure all data transferred within the network is encrypted to prevent unauthorized access.
- Threat Analysis: Provide tools and methods to analyze potential threats and vulnerabilities within the network.
- Logging and Monitoring: Implement continuous logging and monitoring to track network activities and detect anomalies.
- Backup Solutions: Integrate regular backup solutions to preserve data integrity and facilitate recovery in case of data loss.
- Intrusion Detection: Include an intrusion detection system to identify possible security breaches.
- Role-Based Access Control: Define roles and permissions to ensure users only have access to necessary resources.

The ideal freelancer for this project should have:
- Extensive knowledge and experience in cyber security and network simulation.
- Proficiency in setting up and managing virtual networks.
- Good understanding of collaborative tools and resource sharing platforms.
- Ability to create a network that can effectively simulate cyber attacks.

The virtual network should be created on Azure. The virtual network should include basic simulations to demonstrate fundamental concepts and simple attack scenarios. The simulations should cover basic cyber attacks such as phishing, brute force attacks, and basic malware. Basic support documentation should be included. Provide basic support to troubleshoot initial network issues and guide users through setup. Include both admin and limited user roles to manage different access levels within the network. Include comprehensive support documentation covering detailed troubleshooting steps and advanced network setup guides. The virtual network should support a small user base of 1-50 users. The network should be completed within 2 days. The network simulations should focus on basic concepts and simple attack scenarios suitable for beginners.
