To deal with the web server threats, pre-emptive measures need to be implemented. Amongst the most critical elements of communication network is the web server. Attacks against network infrastructure are regarded as among the serious hazard in modern era.

Network Security is a significant component in the age of Information Technology. Keywords: DDOS, DMZ, Kali Linux, Mikrotik, Nmap, Nikto, Slowloris, Web Server. On Mikrotik and the web server was still available to the standard users. As the consequences, Slowloris attack by the hacker was not successful because of the firewall rules applied Were clear that having a DMZ in a network secured by an extra layer of firewall can prevent the loss of data and an enterprise business.Ĭonsidering the security of a network with web servers, from DDOS or other similar attacks, the results of the study Network was designed in a way to consider the easy implementation in a real scenario i.e. And the virtual machines for servers and network devices were created in Virtual Box software.

Whole simulation was done on the GNS3 network emulator to get the results like realĮnvironment. Finally, the comparison of scanning tools for the DMZ and a non-DMZ area The network was tested and verified by kali Linux machine and penetration testing Trustworthy users get access through the network and the hackers sending huge network traffic to let the servicesĭown, get blocked automatically. Nmap and Nikto, And to implement the Mikrotik firewall policies prudently for the DMZ so that only The main objective of this study is toĭesign a topology with a DMZ secured by a Mikrotik router, to test the network with the eminent scanning toolsĪvailable i.e. Setting up a DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) using a Mikrotik router firewall policy. The presented defence methodology deals with the security of public facing servers of an enterprise network by New techniques have been launched to tackle the threats but with the advance in technology, the hackersĪlso come up with unconventional performances to get ransom for exploiting the organization’s data and services. DDOS attack prevention has always been a hot topic for researchers in the gigantic field of network To deal with the web server threats, pre-emptive measures need to be Amongst the most critical elements ofĬommunication network is the web server. Network infrastructure are regarded as among the serious hazard in modern era. Abstract: Network Security is a significant component in the age of Information Technology.
