The scan shows port 445 (SMB) open on a Windows 7 SP3 system, which is highly susceptible to the MS17-010 (EternalBlue) vulnerability. This exploit specifically targets SMB on unpatched Windows systems and is well known to be effective against this configuration.

If the client's wireless network operates on the 6GHz band (Wi-Fi 6E), a capture device that only supports 2.4GHz and 5GHz will not detect it in monitor mode. Lack of 6GHz hardware support is the most likely reason the network is not visible during packet capture.

Identified Weaknesses:
Weaker password settings than the company standard: Indicates inconsistency in password policies across systems.
Systems without the company ' s endpoint security software installed: Suggests lack of uniformity in security software deployment.
Operating systems not updated by the patch management system: Points to gaps in patch management processes.
Configuration Management System:
Definition: A configuration management system automates the deployment, maintenance, and enforcement of configurations across all systems in an organization.
Benefits: Ensures consistency in security settings, software installations, and patch management across the entire environment.
Examples: Tools like Ansible, Puppet, and Chef can help automate and manage configurations, ensuring compliance with organizational standards.
Other Recommendations:
Vulnerability Management System: While adding systems to this system helps track vulnerabilities, it does not address the root cause of configuration inconsistencies.
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR): Useful for detecting and responding to threats, but not for enforcing consistent configurations.
Patch Management: Patching systems addresses specific vulnerabilities but does not solve broader configuration management issues.
Pentest References:
System Hardening: Ensuring all systems adhere to security baselines and configurations to reduce attack surfaces.
Automation in Security: Using configuration management tools to automate security practices, ensuring compliance and reducing manual errors.
Implementing a configuration management system addresses the root issue by ensuring consistent security configurations, software deployments, and patch management across the entire environment.
