Environment:

Deliverables:

Based on the scenario above, provide a written attack and penetration testing plan. The plan should include these sections:

• Table of Contents,
• Project Summary,
• Goals and Objectives,
• Tasks,
• Reporting, and
• Schedule.

Your penetration testing plan should be 2-3 pages in length and should discuss and cite at least three credible or academic references other than the course materials.
