About this course
This is a 50-hour course m is designed to train cyber defense experts who can advise, guide, and make decisions on information protection tasks focusing on the technological-tactical aspects (without the administrative-government domain). These abilities will be acquired through a thorough familiarity with the strategies, tactics, techniques, and best practices in these diverse fields, including familiarity with the theory of attack and intelligence. Students will gradually learn the core features of the CSTP through lectures, self-guided homework assignments, and in-vivo practice labs. The Cyber Security Technology Professional program (CSTP) deals with the strategic level and integrates the knowledge and disciplines required for the expert architect.
Audience profile
This course requires a profound knowledge of system and networking aspects (Operating systems, networking, and ideally initial acquaintance with cyber defense tools) and is not suitable for beginners. BSC\BA grad\post in the field of Computer Science, Software\ Hardware Engineering may also apply.
At course completion
After completing this course, students will be able to:
- The abilities to deal with the role of a cyber defense architect
- Design a cyber defense system
- Choose the right technological components, and implement them by using the best technique
- Analyze understand and respond both rapidly and efficiently to cyber events
