Network Security & Database Vulnerabilities

CODE: 8H131G

LENGTH: 10 Hours

PRICE: £260.00

Description

This course provides a background of network security. You will learn the about Local Area Networks, TCP/IP, the OSI Framework and routing basics, how networking affects security systems within an organization, and about the network components that guard an organization from cybersecurity attacks. In addition to networking, you will learn about database vulnerabilities and the tools/knowledge needed to research a database vulnerability for a variety of databases.

This course is intended for anyone who wants to gain a basic understanding of cybersecurity. This is the fourth course in a series to acquire the skills to work in the field as a Cybersecurity Analyst.

  • Determine the security controls required to protect data given the potential sources of threats and the hosting model used
  • Discuss how each step in the data security process applies to the entire IT and data security landscape
  • Describe the key components of data logging and monitoring
  • Explain the value of real-time policy violation alerts and activity blocking
  • Explain how to generate metrics for logging and audit reporting
  • Describe the event attributes to include in logging
  • Explain how to configure systems to monitor for cybersecurity events
