Description
Become a cyber security specialist.
After this course, you will be able to
discover security vulnerabilities across an entire network, by using network hacking techniques and vulnerability
scanning.
You will be able to architect your network for maximum security and
prevent local and remote attacks. We also cover the use of custom router
firmware to provide you with better network security services.
You will understand
the various types of firewalls that are available and what threats each help
mitigate.
Including layer 4 firewalls like Iptables on Linux and PF on MacOS and BSD. Virtual
firewalls, host-based firewalls and application based firewalls like Pfsence.
We cover firewalls on all platforms including Windows, Mac OS X and Linux for
all types of use scenarios.
We explore in detail wireless security, the configurations
that are required for maximum security and why. How Wi-Fi is hacked and how to
mitigate those attacks. Covering everything from encryption weaknesses to evil
twins, RF isolation, and Wi-Fi crackers.
You will master network monitoring to discover and identify potential hackers,
malware and other adversaries that might be lurking on your network. Using
tools like Wireshark, Tcpdump and Syslog.
We then move away from network security and
onto the details of how we are tracked
online by corporations, nation-states your ISP and others. You will
understand the techniques used like zombie super cookies, browser
fingerprinting and how browser profiling works so third parties can establish
who you are online.
We look at search engine privacy - and how to mitigate the
tracking and privacy issues of search engines and their associated services.
Browser
security - We cover one of the largest risks
online, the browser. The doorway into your system. How to best reduce the
attack surface of the browser and harden it for maximum security and privacy. A critical consideration for reducing your risk.
Finally you will fully understand how to
best use methods of authentication
including passwords and multi-factor authentication - soft tokens and hard
tokens.
The best password managers to use and why. How passwords are
cracked, and how to mitigate the cracking.
This is volume 2 of 4 of your complete guide to cyber security privacy and anonymity.
