# Security Enterprise Network Design
![Secure Company Network Packet Tracer](https://res.cloudinary.com/dtsm9eluo/image/upload/v1736501723/security_enterprise_network_project_hxc1dh.png)
---

## 🚀 Purpose

The primary objective of this project is to:
- Design a secure enterprise network architecture.
- Demonstrate communication between systems using routing and switching protocols.
- Implement and test security measures, including firewalls, VLANs, ACLs, and VPNs.
- Provide a scalable and redundant network for enterprise applications.

---

## 🖥️ Devices Used

- **Routers:** Cisco ISR Series (e.g., ISR 2911) for routing and inter-network communication.
- **Switches:** Cisco Catalyst Series (e.g., Catalyst 2960) for VLAN and inter-VLAN routing.
- **Firewalls:** Simulated firewall devices for network perimeter security.
- **Servers:**
- Authentication Server (e.g., AAA Server).
- DNS Server.
- Application Servers (Web and Database).
- **End Devices:** PCs, laptops, and wireless devices connected through VLANs.

---

## 📡 System Communication

### Communication Protocols:
- **Routing Protocols:** OSPF/EIGRP for efficient network routing.
- **Switching:** VLANs (802.1Q) for logical traffic segmentation.
- **Security Measures:**
- ACLs for traffic filtering.
- Firewalls for access control.
- VPNs for secure remote communication.

---

## 🔧 Configuration

### Key Configurations:
1. **Routers:**
- OSPF/EIGRP configuration for dynamic routing.
- NAT for external access.
- VPN tunnels for secure remote access.
2. **Switches:**
- VLAN configurations for segmentation.
- Trunking for inter-VLAN communication.
3. **Firewalls:**
- Rule-based access control for inbound/outbound traffic.
- Stateful packet inspection.
4. **Servers:**
- DNS configuration for name resolution.
- Authentication services (e.g., RADIUS).

## 🛠️ Setup Instructions

1. **Install Cisco Packet Tracer:**
- Download from [Cisco NetAcad](https://www.netacad.com/).
2. **Open Project File:**
- Clone this repository and load the `.pkt` file in Cisco Packet Tracer.
3. **Inspect and Configure:**
- Open the devices in Packet Tracer to review the topology.
- Apply any necessary configurations (VLANs, routing, firewalls, etc.).
4. **Simulate:**
- Use simulation mode to test connectivity and verify security policies.
5. **Document Results:**
- Record test results and analyze the network's performance.

---

## 🌀 Workflow

1. **Planning:**
- Define the network's objectives, such as scalability, redundancy, and security.
- Design the topology and device roles.
2. **Implementation:**
- Configure VLANs, routing, firewalls, and servers.
- Set up remote access through VPNs.
3. **Testing:**
- Simulate traffic and validate network configurations.
- Verify ACLs, routing protocols, and connectivity.
4. **Optimization:**
- Troubleshoot any issues and fine-tune configurations.
5. **Documentation:**
- Maintain detailed records of configurations, addressing schemes, and test results.
