Introduction to Cyber Assaults

About this Course

This course gives learners with a baseline understanding of frequent cyber safety threats, vulnerabilities, and dangers. An summary of how fundamental cyber assaults are constructed and utilized to actual programs can also be included. Examples embrace easy Unix kernel hacks, Web worms, and Trojan horses in software program utilities. Community assaults resembling distributed denial of service (DDOS) and botnet- assaults are additionally described and illustrated utilizing actual examples from the previous couple of many years.

Acquainted analytic fashions are outlined such because the confidentiality/integrity/availability (CIA) safety menace framework, and examples are used as an example how these several types of threats can degrade actual belongings. The course additionally consists of an introduction to fundamental cyber safety danger evaluation, with an summary of how threat-asset matrices can be utilized to prioritize danger choices. Threats, vulnerabilities, and assaults are examined and mapped within the context of system safety engineering methodologies.
