OPERATIONS

NETWORK SECURITY PROJECT
SECURE NETWORK DEVICE CONFIGURATION VIA SSH
Configured a small enterprise-grade network (router, switch, host) with comprehensive security hardening. Disabled Telnet in favour of SSH-only remote access using RSA keys. Enforced password policies, login security with block-for and session timeouts, and secured all VTY lines with local authentication. Verified configurations via ping and SSH connectivity testing.
