Prerequisites: COS 338 Networking, ELC 200 Introduction to eCommerce or COS 203 Introduction to Information Assurance. The main goal of this course is to provide you with a fundamental understanding of network security principles and implementation. You will learn about the technologies used and principles involved in creating a secure computer networking environment. You will learn about the authentication, the types of attacks and malicious code that may be used against your network, the threats and countermeasures for e-mail, Web applications, remote access, and file and print services. A variety of security topologies are discussed as well as technologies and concepts used for providing secure communications channels, secure internetworking devices, and network medium. Further, you will learn about intrusion detection systems, firewalls, and physical security concepts. In addition, security policies, disaster recovery, and computer forensics are covered. Aside from learning the technologies involved in security, you will get to understand the daily tasks involved with managing and troubleshooting those technologies. You will have a variety of hands-on and case project assignments that reinforce the concepts. Offered every other year, 4 Credit Hours
