This course provides an opportunity to explore computer network security and equips you with the skills necessary to protect modern networks from emerging threats.
You will learn to analyse vulnerabilities, configure secure network components such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems, and apply cryptographic and protocol-based security measures. Through lectures, labs, and group assignments, you will gain practical experience in designing secure network topologies and implementing security policies. The course also emphasises the evaluation of ethical and legal considerations in network security, preparing you for roles in designing and managing secure network infrastructures.
