Integrate the cybersecurity system and enhance the security of the website.

Task: I was assigned to improve the security system of the website [NDA] and protect it from vulnerabilities identified during scanning with Acunetix. The goal was to enhance the site's security level and ensure successful completion of all vulnerability checks.

The work included:

— Analyzing the Acunetix report and identifying vulnerabilities.
— Auditing the network perimeter to detect weaknesses and potential attack entry points.
— Installing a firewall on the server to protect against unauthorized access and attacks.
— Deploying an external WAF (Web Application Firewall) for additional protection against web attacks.
— Auditing all configuration files with settings for maximum security to minimize potential risks.
— Implementing necessary security measures to eliminate vulnerabilities such as: XSS, SQL injections, SSRF, LFI/RFI, RCE, weak SSL/TLS configurations, and others.
— Optimizing server and web application settings to enhance their resilience to attacks.
— Rescanning the site with Acunetix to confirm the successful elimination of all identified vulnerabilities.

Result: After the work was completed, the site successfully passed the Acunetix scan, confirming its protection against known types of attacks. A high level of security was achieved, reducing the risks of data compromise and improving the overall security posture of the site.
