 Vulnerabilities:

Weak Authentication Mechanisms - Multiple accounts using default or weak passwords.

Misconfigured Firewalls - Open ports allowing unauthorized external connections.

Unpatched Software - Outdated operating systems and software increasing the attack surface.

Insider Threats - Employees accessing restricted data without proper authorization.

Unsecured Wireless Network - Lack of encryption in Wi-Fi settings. 

Exposed APIs and Web Services - Lack of proper access control measures.


Threats:

Brute Force Attacks - Exploiting weak passwords for unauthorized access.

Phishing and Social Engineering Attacks - Employees targeted through malicious emails.

Ransomware Attacks - Unpatched systems susceptible to malware infections.

Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks - Attackers exploiting open ports to overload systems.

Distributed Denial-of-Service Attacks - 

Man-in-the-Middle Attacks - Unsecured network traffic interception.

Insider Threats - Misuse of privileged accounts leading to data breaches.


Mitigating Strategies:

Implement Strong Password Policies - Require complex passwords and enable multi-factor authentication.

Regular Patch Management - Automate updates to ensure all systems remain protected.

Firewall Configuration Best Practices - Restrict open ports and enforce network segmentation.

Security Awareness Training - Educate employees on phishing attacks and insider threats.

Data Encryption Measures - Encrypt sensitive data in transit and at rest.

Conduct Periodic Security Audits - Regularly assess the network for new vulnerabilities.
