Student Learning Outcomes/Learning Objectives

Course Rationale

To introduce students to a broad range of network intrusion, prevention and detection topics including: implementation and testing of IDS security plan, security monitoring, intrusion detection, alarm management, analysis of events and trends, and crisis management.

Course Objectives and Learning Outcomes

Determine which network systems are alive (reconnaissance)
Discover which operating system software is used on a network, which patches have not been updated, etc. (enumeration)
Identify which TCP and UDP services are running, listening, or established on the network (port scan)
Create IDS sensors and attach them to network (snort)
Detect, identify, resolve and document network intrusions
Detect privilege escalation, remote control, keyloggers, rootkits, etc.
Discover rouge wireless access points, sniffers, or VPNs on network
Monitor and evaluate audit logs and set administrative alerts
Deploy, implement and test IDS security plan

Office Hours

M T W Th F 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM Webex Online

NOTE Please make use of lab days, forums, and email for questions. Since I teach mostly Online, students should schedule a Webex meeting with me during my Office Hours.
