Intro to Information Security

Course description

Information Technology systems need to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. In this course, students are introduced to the principles of network and operating system security through hands-on exploration. Students learn how to harden an operating system as well as secure the network by implementing technologies such as firewalls, Virtual Private Networks (VPN), and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS).

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
