<li>The full names of the assignment group member(s).</li>
<li>The name, (platform/distribution) and version of OS to be tested.</li>
<li>Explanation (justification) of why particular OS was selected for testing.</li>
<li>A plan for assignment completion including a list of tasks to achieve the the person responsible for that assigned task.<br /><br /></li>
</ol>
</li><li>E-mail your instructor (<b>murray.saul@senecac.on.ca</b>, subject line: <b>SEC520 - Assignment1</b>) a <u>hypertext link</u> to your group's assignment Google Document.<br/><br />
<b>NOTE:</b> Your instructor will provide <u>feedback</u> regarding this initial phase of the assignment. It is recommended to view the feedback to make certain your group is on the "right track".

<h2> <span class="mw-headline">Report Requirements (Due Date: Week 8, Friday@11:59 p.m.)</span></h2>
<br />
You are required to create a report discussing the features and effectiveness of your open-source vulnerability software. Material created for the "Initial Rquirements" submission can be included in an appedix section of the report. You can perform netsearches on examples of Penetration Testing Reports (although real ones can consist of 60-70 pages! You are NOT required to produce a report of that size, but it should accomphish your objective.)<br /><br />
<u>Required Contents</u>
<br/><br />
<ul>
<li><b>Report Title</b> (Appropriate title, date, group member(s) names, instructor's name).<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Overview</b> One or two paragraphs providing a background or purpose of the report. This section should also provide an explanation for the choice of OS for testing, and a brief "reputation" of the OS according to the Internet (with sources). This section should also provide very general observations from the penetration testing of this OS.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Reconnassaince</b> Description of reconnaissance phase (with sources to material in appendix).<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Scanning & Enumeration</b> Description of the scanning and enumeration phase with references to results in the Appendix. Make certain to provide a comprehensive collection of scanning information in the Appendix.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Vulnerablility Testing</b> Listing and full description of the vulnerability testing phase (with reference to materials in Appendix for support).</li>
<li><b>Conclusion</b> Breif summary outlining main points of the penetration testing of the OS. Description of results of lessons learned from the penetration test. Recommendations for the imaginary employer or client in order to protect against penetration of the OS.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Appendix</b> containing supporting materials of the penetration test.<br /><br /></li>
</ul>
