- Module 1: Introduction to CybersecurityThis module introduces the principles of cybersecurity, its importance in today’s digital world, and the roles of cybersecurity professionals. You’ll learn about common threats such as malware, ransomware, phishing, and social engineering attacks. Topics also include basic encryption, firewalls, and network security fundamentals. By the end of this module, learners will understand the scope of cybersecurity and the ethical responsibilities involved in protecting digital assets.0
- Module 2: Ethical Hacking FundamentalsIn this module, you will learn the foundations of ethical hacking, including the legal and ethical frameworks that govern penetration testing. Topics include reconnaissance techniques, footprinting, and information gathering. You’ll explore how hackers exploit vulnerabilities and how to identify these weaknesses safely and legally. Hands-on exercises with virtual lab setups help reinforce your understanding of attack and defense strategies.0
- Module 3: Network Security and Vulnerability AThis module focuses on securing networks and evaluating potential vulnerabilities. You’ll learn about network protocols, firewalls, IDS/IPS systems, VPNs, and wireless security. Tools like Wireshark and Nmap are used to monitor network traffic, detect anomalies, and perform vulnerability scans. You’ll also understand how to interpret results and implement security measures to protect network infrastructures effectively.0
- Module 4: Web Application SecurityWeb applications are often prime targets for attackers, and this module focuses on securing them. You’ll learn about common web vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, and insecure authentication. Hands-on exercises with penetration testing tools like Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP teach you to detect and mitigate security flaws. By completing this module, you’ll be capable of identifying weaknesses in web applications and implementing secure coding practices.0
- Module 5: Cryptography and Data ProtectionThis module covers encryption techniques, cryptographic algorithms, and secure communication methods to protect sensitive information. You’ll learn about symmetric and asymmetric encryption, hashing, digital signatures, and public key infrastructure (PKI). Practical exercises include encrypting data, generating secure keys, and implementing secure transmission protocols. By the end of this module, learners will be able to safeguard information and prevent unauthorized access.0
