CYBR610 Network Security and Intrusion Detection (3 cr.) This course provides a comprehensive overview of network security and intrusion detection. Students focus on methods for securing networks, and utilize these methods in basic architectural design. Students apply these methods into a cohesive network security strategy. Topics include investigation of areas such as data analysis and interpretation, threat/intrusion detection, vulnerability management, incident response and security architecture. The course also prepares students for the CompTIA CySA+ Certification Exam.
Upon completion of the course, students are expected to be able to do the following:
- Implement security operations and monitoring design principles in network architectures.
- Integrate software and systems security secure network components through knowledge of hardware, transmission media, cryptography, network access, honeypot, endpoint security, and content-distribution networks.
- Implement secure communication channels according to design that involve voice, multimedia collaboration, remote access, data communications, and virtualized networks.
- Specify incident response and forensic procedures to recover from attacks on network systems.
- Conduct logging and monitoring activities to support intrusion detection and prevention, and event management.
- Identify threats and vulnerabilities in networked systems.
- Understand compliance and assessment practices.
