Security Assessment & Penetration Testing – Matrix-1

Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing case study performed in an authorized VulnHub training environment.

I conducted reconnaissance and service enumeration using Nmap, identified exposed SSH and HTTP services, and performed web enumeration on the target. The assessment included analyzing encoded web content, retrieving and decoding a file, identifying a credential-related security issue, and validating SSH access in the lab environment.

The project demonstrates practical skills in network reconnaissance, service enumeration, web security testing, information disclosure analysis, credential assessment, SSH, and security reporting.

Tools & Technologies: Nmap, curl, SSH, Base64, Brainfuck decoding.

The assessment was performed strictly within an authorized training/lab environment.
