Course Outline
Networking Overview & Internet Architecture
- TCP/IP and OSI models, routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, EIGRP), DNS, DHCP, NAT
- Security implications: ARP spoofing, DNS tunneling, route hijacking, and DHCP starvation
- Fundamentals of network traffic analysis and establishing baselines
- Lab 1:Packet capture analysis, topology mapping, and identifying suspicious routing or DNS activity
Modern Network Solutions & Physical Implementation
- Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Zero Trust architecture
- Next-generation firewalls, micro-segmentation, and ingress/egress traffic controls
- Fibre optic infrastructure: optical security, risks of physical layer tapping, and media attenuation monitoring
- Lab 2:Designing secure network segmentation with policy-driven access controls and mapping physical media risks
Virtualization, Cloud Computing & IaaS Security
- Hypervisor types (Type 1/2), VM escape vectors, hyperjacking, and hypervisor hardening
- Cloud IaaS security models (AWS/Azure/GCP), identity and access management, security groups, and compliance boundaries
- Shared responsibility framework, misconfiguration detection, and cloud-native encryption (at-rest and in-transit)
- Lab 3:Assessing cloud security posture, mapping IAM roles, and detecting common IaaS vulnerabilities
Clustering, High Availability & IoT Security
- Load balancers, failover clusters, distributed consensus, and quorum risks
- IoT architecture, edge computing threats, firmware vulnerabilities, and protocol hardening (MQTT, CoAP, Zigbee, LoRaWAN)
- Device authentication, secure boot, and supply chain integrity for edge deployments
- Lab 4:Simulating cluster failover, enumerating IoT devices, and designing secure provisioning workflows
Cryptography, Web Service Security & Recent Vulnerabilities
- Symmetric and asymmetric encryption, key management, PKI, and certificate validation
- TLS/SSL handoffs, cipher suite hardening, and certificate pinning
- Web service security: OAuth2, JWT, API gateways, WAF rules, and rate limiting
- Recent cryptographic attacks and CVEs: side-channel exploits, quantum threats, ROCA, Heartbleed, and implementation flaws
- Lab 5:Conducting TLS configuration audits, API security testing, and vulnerability correlation exercises
Future Implementation, Risk Assessment & Capstone
- Emerging ICT trends: AI/ML in threat detection, SASE, 5G/6G network slicing risks, and edge-to-cloud convergence
- Risk assessment methodologies: NIST CSF, ISO 27001, threat modeling (STRIDE), and risk treatment planning
- Capstone:Designing a secure, modern ICT architecture; conducting a risk assessment; and presenting mitigation strategies
- Course wrap-up, Q&A, and guidance on assessment preparation
