How to Perform a Technical Network Vulnerability Assessment – You will focus learning on Identifying tools to assist in network vulnerability assessment, conduct a network vulnerability assessment, identify where to obtain tools, combine the output from tools to see a complete picture

Internet Security Tools and Techniques - You will learn cryptographic basics, defensive and offensive methods and mechanisms, including multiple firewall deployment and design, VPNs: types and deployment, site to site and user to site, intrusion detection systems: types, strengths, weaknesses, and use, 20 worst Internet threats and how to counter them, 10 management errors that lead to vulnerabilities and how to avoid them, hacker tools to use to test and verify servers, firewalls, and IDS systems, home-grown and commercial tools, tricks, and techniques.

Hands on Hacking - This program is for security professionals who seek to understand how to profile internet systems, maximize time spent for scanning vulnerabilities, exploit the vulnerabilities discovered, keep your access to the compromised system, hide your access, and think like a hacker in order to better protect your own systems.

Introduction to Computer and Network Security – You will learn about common threats to information assets, what to look for in an intrusion detection product, the importance of a security awareness program, securityissues and vulnerabilities associated with your organization’s use of the Internet.

Intrusion Detection, Attacks and Counter Measures – You will learn the styles of attackers, host systems and their capabilities for security and logging, reconnaissance: the probing and scanning of networks and hosts, examples of network-based attacks, including buffer overflows and attacks through firewalls, elevation of privilege tools, intruder behavior after a successful attack, trojans, rootkits, backdoors and tunnels, denial of service attack tools, use of firewalls, ID systems, deception, honeypots, recovering from an intrusion.

Practical Forensics: How to manage IT Investigations - Computer forensics as a tool for management and legal counsel, electronic records discovery from both sides, effective strategies in the collection of electronic evidence, investigative issues for computer subpoenas and seizure orders, skills the technical investigator must have, forensics techniques in a heterogeneous computing environment – palmtops to servers, information System Forensics – a systems approach to computer forensics, experienced-based case studies involving the recovery of digital evidence, analysis strategies in the review of acquired electronic evidence. Evaluating and presenting recovered remnant or residual data, practical technical report writing , overview of free, almost free, and demos of tools you can use to begin forensic analysis of electronic evidence, evidence documentation and processing principles, internet defamation cases – tracing words on the web, lessons learned – strategies for dealing with unexpected situations in the field.

Introduction to End-to-End Digital Forensic Analysis - This session explores the concept of a full end-to-end analysis of digital events. We will examine the underlying attack concepts, learn where to search for evidence, and discover how to correlate and normalize a chain of evidence across one or more networks and multiple network devices, including intermediate computer purloined by the attacker for the purpose of concealing his or her identity.
Disussions will include log analysis, correlation and normalization, the concept of a corroborated chain of evidence, and case preparation. At the end you should be examining methods for determining the probability that an attack actually occurred as well as methods for showing intent on the part of the attacker.

A Practical Guide to Encryption and Certificate Authorities – You will learn cryptographic principles, trends, history and usage, where encryption belongs in securing your organizations information assets, relevant cryptographic terminology used in detailed security analysis and marketing material, differences between secret key and public key encryption systems, how public key cryptography works in a network, the role and benefits of Certificate Authorities and how to go about implementing them in your environment.

Technical Recovery of Electronic Evidence – Learn strategies for the recovery of digital evidence, preparing the specification of your forensic toolkit, the “duty expert” giving technical/operational advice, overview of data storage technology, remnant data that provide valuable clues: disk slack and deleted files, meta-data, dealing with encryption, forensics techniques in a heterogeneous computing environment – palmtops to servers, RAID arrays, PC media, network appliances, Palmtops, overview of adversarial seizure of digital evidence, case management techniques, demonstration of tools – imaging backup tools, forensics tools, analysis tools, managing data acquisition and analysis tasks, estimating and planning – task deconstruction.

Point A to Z: A Primer on Data Communications Security - In this seminar you will learn the basic principles and technology of communications system currently in use, the three basic goals of network security and how they relate to your environment, critical vulnerabilities in communications systems and the safeguards available, network security terminology, how to apply basic security principles to your particular communications configuration, the importance of a focused awareness program.
