This course Prepares students to assess and then correct the vulnerabilities present within information systems. Students learn about tools and penetration testing methodologies used by ethical hackers and discusses what and who an ethical hacker is and how important they are in protecting corporate and government data from cyber-attacks. Methods and tools used in attacks and their countermeasures as well as available security resources and attack "types." Systems are also investigated.
This course explores legal and ethical issues faced in the information technology field. Students learn about ethical issues within an organization as they relate to relationships internally as well as with customers, partners, and society. Students explore how Information systems security and legal compliance are now required to protect critical governmental and corporate infrastructure, intellectual property created by individuals and organizations alike, and information that individuals believe should be protected from unreasonable intrusion.
This course explores network security basics, including how hackers access online networks and the use of Firewalls and VPNs to provide security countermeasures. Students focus on both managerial and technical aspects of security. Coverage includes packet filtering, authentication, proxy servers, encryption, bastion hosts, virtual private networks (VPNs), log file maintenance, and intrusion detection systems. This course contains mandatory group work. We recommend viewing the course schedule immediately upon logging into the course to view course and group work requirements.
Students examine and analyze the landscape, key terms and concepts. Security professional need to know about hackers and computer criminals who break into networks, steal information, and corrupt data. Students examine how attacks target networks and the methodology they follow. This course includes mandatory group work. We recommend viewing the course schedule immediately upon logging into the course to view course and group work requirements. Computer Software Requirements: Blank DVD’s and/or 4GB+ memory stick
This course provides students with concepts of discovering and exploiting flaws in mobile applications on the iOS, Android, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile platforms. Students are introduced to a proven methodology for approaching mobile application assessments and the techniques used to prevent, disrupt and remediate the various types of attacks. Coverage includes data storage, cryptography, transport layers, data leakage, injection attacks, runtime manipulation, security controls, and cross-platform apps, with vulnerabilities highlighted and detailed information on the methods hackers use to get around standard security.
Students examine and discover computer forensics, operating systems and how they function. Students are introduced to forensic tools along with concepts such as chain of custody and documentation of evidence/procedures. Students evaluate how to conduct a high-tech investigation, from acquiring digital evidence to reporting its findings. This course contains mandatory group work. We recommend viewing the course schedule immediately upon logging into the course to view course and group work requirements.
Students explore the evolution of wired networks to wireless networking and its impact on the corporate world. Using case studies and real-world events, the student discusses risk assessments, threats, and vulnerabilities of wireless networks, as well as the security measures that should be put in place to mitigate breaches. Students will look at the policies and procedures in place and a glimpse ahead at the future of wireless and mobile device security.
Students examine the realm of network security, spotlighting the latest threats and vulnerabilities. The students address how and why people attack computers and networks--equipping them with the knowledge and techniques to successfully consider methods of combating hackers. Pre-requisite: OL463 Linux, Firewalls and VPN's
This course integrates the knowledge and skills students have obtained throughout the program. Emphasis is placed on security policy, process planning, procedure definition, business continuity, and systems security architecture. Upon completion, students are able to design and implement comprehensive information security architecture from the planning and design phase through presentation of the final product. Pre-requisites: OL458 Operating Systems Security and OL454 Security Policies.
In this course, students will have exposure to a comprehensive windows-based financial spreadsheet package to enhance their problem-solving abilities. The package used will be Microsoft Excel for Windows. The student will use this as a tool to prepare various reports and presentations and applications which can be transferred to work commonly performed in the modern office. Students will gain hands-on experience in learning and understanding the software, as well as creating and developing spreadsheet applications. Students will develop and enhance spreadsheets, charts, data lists, tables, macros, and perform what-if analysis. Computer Software Requirements: Excel is required and a Memory Stick Flash Drive of 4 gb or greater.
Instructional design involves managing not only the design of curriculum in order to meet learning outcomes but also managing time requirements and other tangible and intangible resources. This course explores the important concepts in project management specifically for educational design and development. We look at time management and cost control, conducting a proper needs analysis from an institutional level as well as strategies for determining scope.
As the world of education evolves, Instructional designers and curriculum developers must be creative and innovative in engaging their learners. The integration of multimedia is necessary in motivating learners to apply skills and engage in the content. Learners learn about implementing graphic and interactive design elements into online learning environments. Learners explore accessibility and ways to ensure graphic and interactive design elements are AODA accessible.
