Prerequisites:
Admission into the Cybersecurity and Threat Management Program.
This course prepares students to recognize the inherent vulnerabilities with firewalls and the different operating systems whether they are connected or unconnected to the network. Using case studies and real-world events, the students explore the evolution of wired and wireless networks and their impact on the corporate world from both cyber-security and business perspectives. The students will utilize tools and techniques that would help assess risks, threats and vulnerabilities of networked operating systems as well as the security measures that should be put in place to mitigate risks and breaches. This course also introduces defense strategies against vulnerabilities through exploring the internals of operating systems and network infrastructures.
