Abstract :
Router is the main device for making a network. There are many companies that provide router devices. Mikrotik router used for cheaper, faster, easy to setup, GUI and multitasking purpose. The main goal point of a hacker is the router of network, when a hacker access to network they can control your network for herself purpose. In this paper we use 6 phase to secure our Mikrotik router and implement basic security of Mikrotik router. To find the vulnerabilities of network use penetration testing method. One of the most dangerous vulnerable is winbox exploit (CVE-2018-14847). Updating and Firewall of Mikrotik router are used for prevention of network vulnerabilities. We restrict and Block all network vulnerabilities, Finally, we prepare a report of all the work we have done.
