From this introduction to intrusion detection systems (IDS), students will develop a solid foundation for understanding IDS and how they function. This course will give students a background in the technology of detecting network attacks. It will introduce all the concepts and procedures used for intrusion detection systems and intrusion prevention systems (IPS). Students will have hands-on experience with implementing and configuring software and hardware based IDPS in a network infrastructure. This course is designed with a network administrator in mind. A fairly extensive background in network administration, or a computer professional with an MCSE or equivalent would have adequate background knowledge for waiver.
