WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Upon successful completion of this course, the students will be able to explain core concepts of system and network architecture, including log ingestion, OS functions, IAM, encryption, and data protection. Students will identify indicators of malicious activity across networks, hosts, applications, and social engineering threats. Students will detect threats using tools like Wireshark, SIEM, and VirusTotal, apply analysis techniques, and use scripting languages for support. They will evaluate threat intelligence sources, improve processes, and conduct vulnerability scanning and assessment using various methods and tools. They will prioritize vulnerabilities, recommend appropriate mitigation controls, and explain response strategies, including patching and secure development practices. Students will apply frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK and OWASP, perform incident response activities, and manage the full incident lifecycle. They will also produce clear reports on vulnerabilities and incidents, focusing on communication, analysis, and continuous improvement.
