Introduction
In this assignment, you will assume the role of an ethical hacker
tasked by law enforcement to infiltrate the network of a business known
to engage in illegal activities.
The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:
Conduct activities to protect IT assets and infrastructure from threats and improve incident response strategies.
Scenario
Imagine for a moment that you are a hacker, an ethical one. You are
called upon by law enforcement to hack into the network of a business
known to be engaged in criminal activity for financial gain as its
primary activity. Assume you are not to be concerned with any political
aspects of the job and that your actions are legal and ethically
justified.
This nefarious business takes its own security seriously and,
therefore, has implemented several forms of network security, including
firewalls, web proxies for its web gateways, and VPNs for remote users.
You also know that this business, much like any normal corporation,
rents several floors of office space to accommodate between 100 and 200
employees. Also, imagine that the business’s entire network topology is
located on-site. Your goal is to infiltrate their security to find
evidence of illegal activities in the local MSQL database. You must
remain anonymous and operate within the parameters of the law.
Instructions
Write a 6-10 page paper in which you:
Explain your method of attack and operation within the reasonable
parameters of the law, citing specific, credible sources that support
the method of attack and operation.
Describe a specific malware, social engineering, or other type of
attack you would deploy to achieve your desired goals, citing specific,
credible sources that support deployment of the attack.
Identify effective techniques for concealing executables and specific tools used for each stage of the attack.
Develop a plan to overcome expected hurdles your attack must
overcome to be successful, citing specific, credible sources that
support the plan.
Develop an anonymizing strategy, supported by specific, credible
sources, that creates a false trail and minimizes the risk of detection.
Cite each source listed on your source page at least one time within your assignment.
For help with research, writing, and citation, access the library or review library guides.
Support your main points, assertions, arguments, or conclusions with at
least four specific and credible academic sources synthesized into a
coherent analysis of the evidence.
This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The
library is your home for SWS assistance, including citations and
formatting. Please refer to the Library site for all supports. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

and/or punctuation errors.
