Implementation of a Cyber Security Defensive Mechanism (Any Language)
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
Your objective is to choose and implement THREE DEFENSIVE mechanisms from the options listed below. You
are expected to demonstrate your implementations that could be used to provide protection against a tangible threat in the domain of cybersecurity. Describe a use-case scenario where your implementation is usable; it
should provide a step-by-step implementation and usage guide. Choose from the following:
1. Wireless Security. In this topic, you will have to implement a defensive mechanism that will be
applied on wireless infrastructure.
2. Cloud Security. Implement a defensive mechanism for an open-source cloud solution, such as Devstack (https://docs.openstack.org/devstack/latest/ ).
3. Information Security. Take the necessary measures in protecting information by using a combination of physical and electronic/cyber tools, ensuring
authorized access and GDPR policies.
4. Resource Provisioning . This topic evaluates an implementation of a centralized authentication
service and resource management e.g., LDAP on a virtualized infrastructure. The students will
implement a miniature infrastructure using VMs and demonstrate the access control using LDAP.
You might choose to use a proprietary or a bespoke solution in order to achieve the above goals.
The submission must include a clear documentation of all the steps, commands issued, and console output.
The documentation should be thorough enough to present your implementation that can be followed as a
step-by-step tutorial for a technically competent reader.
Within the documentation, you must to provide screenshots in support of your implementation and
outcomes, describing the use-case of the defensive mechanism you have opted. All evidences provided, need
to be followed by a supportive narrative.
For example, the screenshots could include the following information:
Networking environment (e.g. IP address).
Tools (GUI/CLI environment) that have been used.
Results that show the effectiveness of the mechanism.
Any relevant evidences that could be used as a proof of concept.
