HW4 Network investigation

In a meeting with executive management and purchasing, the chief technical officer (CTO) would like you and your team to come up with a network analysis tool for assessing a network vulnerabilities approach and functionality identification to be submitted for purchase. Once these tools are identified for purchase, the forensics company can expand from single computer system investigations to investigations requiring network acquisition, monitoring, and reporting tools. Provide a network analysis tool recommendation to the CTO that includes the following:

• Introduction to the contents of the recommendation
• A description of the meaning of the distributed network attack (DNA) approach to recover password-protected files across the network and an explanation of why this DNA tool is one of the most critical elements in network forensics analysis
• A description of the meaning of the network security audit and how it is used by the investigator or administrator to point out all the vulnerabilities and weaknesses of the network devices and servers
