Overview Ghost Network Mapper is a lightweight network reconnaissance tool that discovers devices connected to a local Wi-Fi network, identifies open ports, and highlights services that may be exposed externally. The tool combines Python, Nmap, and a web-based visual interface to transform traditional command-line scan output into a simple and interactive dashboard. Instead of manually parsing Nmap results, users can view devices, ports, and exposure risks through a clear visual network map and structured device table....

Overview This project demonstrates how Tor (The Onion Router) can be used on Kali Linux to automatically rotate a public IP address at defined intervals. By routing browser traffic through the Tor network and using a lightweight automation tool, it is possible to observe frequent IP changes while ensuring DNS information remains protected. The aim of this project is to understand how Tor-based anonymisation works in practice, how IP rotation behaves, and how DNS leaks can be avoided when browsing through the Tor network....

Effective Leadership in Cybersecurity: Managing a Network Breach and Data Migration In the ever-evolving landscape of cyber threats, a network breach poses significant challenges. Here, we delve into a case study where a team of employees and contractors successfully navigated a department-wide network breach. The process involved the organisation of wiping and re-imaging 500 laptops and 120 desktops, and migrating over 10TB of user data from local storage to OneDrive in compliance with NHS data and security protocols....

Overview This project demonstrates practical use of Wireshark to inspect and interpret network traffic across several protocols — focusing on authentication flows and clear-text vulnerabilities. By capturing traffic such as RADIUS, HTTP Basic Authentication, HTTP Form-Based Authentication, and DNS queries, the project highlights critical areas where encryption is essential to maintain security and user privacy. Generating and Capturing RADIUS Traffic This stage involved simulating RADIUS authentication traffic and analysing the captured packets to understand the underlying protocol and associated risks....

Introduction In March 2019, a STEM competition held aboard HMS Sultan, centred around the Royal Navy’s integrated systems, that I took part when I was in college. In this post, I aim to provide a comprehensive account of my involvement in this fascinating project. Purpose of the challenge Designed for young people aged between 14 and 21, the annual competition offers a unique opportunity to grapple with real-world challenges. Each year presents a new theme that aligns with current technological advancements....

Introduction The project centres on Fly-by-Wire (FBW) technology, a system that supersedes traditional manual cockpit displays with a modern electronic interface. We developed a new cockpit display that not only incorporates FBW but also integrates several other essential aircraft control commands. This innovative interface is crafted to replace the standard manual flight controls found in conventional aircraft, whilst also offering additional control functionalities. The software for this interface was developed using Microsoft Visual Studio, specifically as a Windows Form Application....
