ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Once exclusive to the most powerful intelligence agencies, advanced cyber-attack knowledge has gradually trickled down to small groups and individuals offering their services to anyone willing to pay. Zero-day attacks on browsers and operating systems happen on an almost daily basis with security personnel lacking the tools and knowledge to deal with this new offensive.  
This course provides the basic knowledge required to understand the contemporary cyber threat landscape and the structure of the “cyber kill chain”. It covers the main techniques users by attackers in recent years and investigates the damage caused to company information systems. During the second half of the course, students are introduced to current commonly accepted defense techniques and review their effectiveness and cost. They also learn how to “stitch” protection suits (the identities of new professionals tackling these threats). By the end of the course, students will understand that cyber defense and attack differ only in terms of operational objectives.

The course covers the following topics:
