US Investment Bank – Edge Device Discovery
A leading US Investment Bank wanted to extend their off-the-shelf scanning solution to discover edge devices and follow hops to find the very edge of the network. This was not possible OOTB.
I developed a small solution comprising of shell scripting and TPL to discover and map the edge devices which allowed identification of unmonitored networks within the Bank’s infrastructure. The output was sent to CSV files which was the format requested for injestion into their network monitoring tool.
I also wrote a TPL file to discover Windows disk drives, which was another requirement from the client. I finished up by writing full documentation on the approach and code before handing over to the client.
