CATALOG COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course is the study of network and system intrusion detection and auditing. An Intrusion Detection System
(IDS) utilizes a complex process of determining when a network transmission contains malicious content. The
course will begin by reviewing the principles of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet
Protocol (IP). With a solid foundation based on these principles the student will learn how to defend against
network attacks. The student will learn the techniques of creating exploit signature code to thwart zero-day
attack. The course will provide the student with the knowledge necessary to design, implement, and maintain
an enterprise scale Distributed Intrusion Detection System based on the Open System’s tool Snort.
