Focuses on protecting network infrastructure and data as it travels across networks. Topics include firewall configuration, intrusion detection systems, virtual private networks (VPNs), and secure network design principles.

This course teaches how to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in systems and networks ethically. It covers penetration testing methodologies, tools, and techniques to assess the security of systems.

Explores the principles and practices of cryptography, including symmetric and asymmetric encryption, hashing, digital signatures, and key management. It emphasizes the application of cryptographic techniques to secure communications and data.

Focuses on the processes and techniques used in responding to cybersecurity incidents and investigating digital crimes. Topics include evidence collection, analysis, and legal considerations in digital forensics.

Covers the identification, assessment, and mitigation of cybersecurity risks. The course emphasizes developing and implementing risk management strategies, policies, and procedures to protect organizational assets.

Prepares students for roles in a SOC, focusing on monitoring, detecting, and responding to security threats. Topics include security information and event management (SIEM) systems, threat intelligence, and incident handling.

Teaches how to secure software applications by identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities during the development lifecycle. Topics include secure coding practices, application security testing, and common vulnerabilities such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).

Focuses on securing cloud environments and services. It covers cloud security architecture, identity and access management, data protection, and regulatory compliance in the cloud.

Explores the development and implementation of cybersecurity policies, standards, and governance frameworks. It covers legal and regulatory requirements, industry standards, and best practices for managing cybersecurity in organizations.
