Description

This course identifies the tools, techniques, strategies, and motivations of system intruders. In doing so, this course provides students with the skills necessary to ethically search, identify, and perform active assessment of enterprise systems, typically called penetration testing. Thus, students are able to preemptively identify the mechanisms by which attacks are perpetrated and the methods by which they can be prevented, defended or remediated. The hands-on activities will be based on environment(s) that minimize risk, and possible legal, ethical or network availability issues.
