Artifact 1: Network Enumeration and Security Analysis Lab<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I completed a hands-on lab where I used tools such as Nmap to scan a virtual network, identify open ports, detect operating systems, and analyze potential vulnerabilities. This assignment strengthened my understanding of how attackers gather information and how defenders secure exposed services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artifact 2: Vulnerability Assessment with Nessus<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In this project, I ran a full vulnerability scan on a controlled environment using Nessus. I reviewed the report, interpreted critical findings, and documented remediation steps. This artifact demonstrates my ability to read, understand, and respond to vulnerability data in a structured and professional format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
