Ethical Hacking

By the end of the program, participants will be able to: 

1. Understand how perimeter defenses function by ethically scanning and attacking networks
2. Conduct information systems security audits by understanding the latest security threats, advanced attack vectors, hacking techniques, methodologies and security measures
3. Identify intruders, understand how they escalate privileges, and take the necessary steps to secure a system
4. Conduct vulnerability assessments, risk assessments, penetration testing, and system protection measures
5. Create policies and apply countermeasures against social engineering, Distributed Denial-of- Service (DDoS) attacks, buffer overflows, and virus creation
6. Apply countermeasures to secure mobile infrastructure against the attacks to mobile platforms and tablet computers

IT professionals, security professionals, auditors, site administrators, general management and anyone tasked with managing and protecting the integrity of the network infrastructure. This also includes anyone already familiar and involved with IT/Cyber/Digital Security and seeking to build on their fundamental principles of security.
