TECH SOCIETY

CYBER SECURITY COMMUNITY

PROJECT IDEAS:

1. Web Scraping Security Scanner:

This project involves developing a tool that automatically scrapes web pages and looks for common security flaws. It can scan
for vulnerable elements such as exposed directories, outdated software versions, insecure HTTP headers, and other web
vulnerabilities.It's useful for identifying basic web security weaknesses, especially for penetration testing or security audits of
websites. This tool can help web admins identify and mitigate security risks before attackers exploit them.

2. Keylogger:

A keylogger is a program designed to record keystrokes made by a user. It is typically used in ethical hacking and penetration
testing to demonstrate how cybercriminals can monitor and record user inputs to steal sensitive information (like
passwords).This tool is useful for educational purposes, enabling students to understand how keylogging malware works. It
can also help in defending against such attacks by highlighting the importance of user privacy and security.

3. Build a Firewall Using iptables:

This project involves configuring a firewall using iptables, a user-space utility program for configuring the firewall rules of
Linux-based systems. The goal is to control incoming and outgoing traffic to secure a system from unauthorized access and
attacks.You can create custom firewall rules that allow or block traffic based on IP addresses, ports, and protocols. It is an
essential skill for system administrators to protect their networks.

4. Phishing Simulation Tool:

This tool creates fake websites that look like legitimate login pages (e.g., Google, Facebook) to simulate phishing attacks. It
helps to educate users about the dangers of phishing and how to identify fraudulent websites.The goal is to help users
recognize phishing attempts and avoid falling victim to these types of attacks. Ethical hackers or security teams can use this
tool to test the security awareness of users within an organization.

5. Login Authentication System:

This project involves building a simple system where users log in using a username and password. The system stores
passwords securely by hashing them, ensuring that even if the database is compromised, the passwords are not exposed.This
system helps understand authentication, password security, and basic web application security. It’s an essential concept in
nearly every software application that requires user access control.

6. File Integrity Checker:

This project is a tool that checks whether the contents of files have been altered or tampered with. The tool computes a
cryptographic hash (e.g., SHA-256) for each file and stores it. Over time, it compares the current file hash with the stored hash
to detect any unauthorized changes.It’s useful for monitoring the integrity of critical system files or sensitive documents. It
can help in detecting malware, unauthorized modifications, or accidental file corruption.
