About the Training

Network Security Fundamentals Training typically focuses on the protection of computer systems and data networks. Such training generally includes the following topics:

  • General Information on Network Security: This includes understanding what network security is and why it is important. This section typically also includes understanding the basic components of a network and how a network operates.
  • Cyber Threats and Types of Attacks: In this section, you will learn about the types of attacks commonly used by cybercriminals and how to protect against them. This includes viruses, trojans, ransomware, DDoS attacks, and more.
  • Security Policies, Procedures, and Protocols: This section teaches which policies and procedures should be in place to keep an organization’s network secure. It includes firewalls, antivirus software, patch management, and other protection techniques.
  • Encryption and Network Protection: This section explains various encryption techniques used to keep data secure and prevent unauthorized access.
  • Access Control and Authentication: This section discusses the importance of controlling who can access a network or systems and how to implement this control.
  • Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS): This covers how to monitor your network for abnormal activity and protect against potential threats.
  • Network Security Tools and Technologies: This section details the various tools and technologies used to ensure and maintain network security.
  • Network Security Testing: Methods and tools used to test the security of your network and identify vulnerabilities.

After learning these fundamentals, you can move on to more advanced topics, such as penetration testing, advanced cyber threats, and more complex network security protocols. Since technology and cyber threats are constantly evolving, it is important to continuously educate yourself and stay up-to-date in this field.
