Description
Network security consists of the policies, processes, and practices adopted to prevent, detect and monitor unauthorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources.
Network Security protects your network and data from breaches, intrusions and other threats. This is a vast and overarching term that describes hardware and software solutions as well as processes or rules and configurations relating to network use, accessibility, and overall threat protection.
Network Security involves access control, virus and antivirus software, application security, network analytics, types of network-related security (endpoint, web, wireless), firewalls, VPN encryption and more.
If the topic is cybersecurity, it is hard to start where. This is because of its multi-discipline structure. With this course, you can have a fresh start in network security with hands-on labs. This gives you the advantage of learning both technical and theoretical aspects of the field. You will have a chance to implement your knowledge about these topics during hand LABs. Our LABs are designed to learn the basics of technologies and processes. Thus, at the end of the course, you will have learned how to use or implement fundamental network-security technologies and processes. The theoretical topics include modern approaches.
Do not worry about technical LABs like IDS technologies, Honeypods, and VPNs. They are designed simply. Before starting the LAB needed theoretical information is given in previous lessons. After finishing the LABs you will have gained needed hands-on practices for Blue Teams.
Our course's motto was chosen from the enlightenment era.
"Sapere Aude" (is the Latin phrase meaning "Dare to know")
