Active Reconnaissance

Now that you have set the rules of engagement for your penetration test of Haverbrook Investment Group's system, you can begin planning the first phase of hacking, reconnaissance, for your proposal. These activities will help you gain insight into your target, Haverbrook Investment Group.

Here, you will engage in active reconnaissance, including gathering information to create a blueprint or map of the target's network and systems. You will also want to check the latest vulnerabilities on lists such as the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and the levels of severity as defined by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) list to see if anything applies to Haverbrook's systems.
