Designed and implemented an enterprise-level SDN environment in EVE-NG, configuring routers, Layer-3 switches, pfSense firewall, VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, NAT, and firewall policies to segment users, servers, and management networks and control access between isolated network segments. Performed protocol fuzzing and vulnerability assessment using Synopsys Defensics and Tenable Nessus, executing 200K+ Defensics test cases on ARP/ICMP and analyzing 80+ Nessus security findings involving weak protocols, cryptographic algorithms, SSH/Telnet, SSL/TLS, and certificate issues.
