Enhance Network Security Detection: VPN Configuration and Comprehensive Testing

Description

Summary of Work

Overview

This pull request introduces a comprehensive enhancement to our network security detection tool, focusing on robust VPN configuration checks and extensible security testing capabilities.

Motivation

As network security threats become increasingly sophisticated, our detection tool needs to provide more nuanced and thorough security assessments. This update addresses key challenges in identifying potential network vulnerabilities, with a specific focus on VPN configuration security.

Key Improvements

• Integrated advanced VPN configuration detection
• Enhanced cross-platform compatibility
• Improved security testing methodology
• More flexible and extensible detection framework

Benefits

• Deeper insights into network security configurations
• Support for multiple VPN types and platforms
• Simplified yet powerful security assessment
• Improved error handling and logging

Architectural Considerations

• Modular design allows easy extension of security checks
• Consistent error handling and logging mechanism
• Platform-agnostic approach to security testing
• Minimal performance overhead

Changes Made

1. VPN Configuration Detection

   • Added comprehensive VPN configuration check method
   • Support for multiple VPN types (OpenVPN, WireGuard, IPSec)
   • Platform-specific detection strategies

2. Security Testing Enhancements

   • Implemented flexible logging mechanism
   • Added verbose and standard output modes
   • Enhanced error tracking and reporting

3. Command-Line Interface Improvements

   • New VPN-specific argument parsing
   • Optional strict mode for rigorous security checks
   • Improved help and documentation

4. Test Infrastructure

   • Added cross-platform VPN detection tests
   • Implemented comprehensive test coverage
   • Ensured consistent testing methodology

Tests and Verification

1. Cross-Platform Testing

   • Verified VPN detection on macOS and Linux
   • Tested various VPN interface configurations
   • Validated detection across different network scenarios

2. Configuration Checks

   • Tested VPN type-specific configuration validation
   • Verified strict mode security checks
   • Ensured proper error handling and reporting

3. Test Coverage

   • 100% code coverage for new VPN detection methods
   • Comprehensive argument parsing tests
   • Validated logging and error reporting mechanisms

4. Edge Case Handling

   • Tested unsupported operating systems
   • Verified behavior with missing or incomplete configurations
   • Ensured graceful degradation under various conditions
