Network Security Administrator

The Network Security course looks at the network security in defensive view while the Ethical Hacking certification program looks at the security in offensive mode. The Network Security program is designed to provide fundamental skills needed to analyze the internal and external security threats against a network and to develop security policies that will protect an organization’s information.

Network Security course will help students learn how to evaluate network and Internet security issues and design, and how to implement successful security policies and firewall strategies. In addition, they will learn how to expose system and network vulnerabilities and defend against them.
