Cyber Security

This introductory module lays the basic for understanding cybersecurity. This IT training program from leading institute incorporates main job roles in the fields like Penetration Tester, Security analyst, Security consultant, SOC Analyst, Incident Responder, and more. It even more unleashes basic notions like CIA Triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability), threat actors, vulnerabilities, and risk assessment. Trainers achieve insights into the goals of cybersecurity and how it secures data, systems, and networks from unauthorized access & attacks.

This module focuses on various cyber attack types and programs, describing how attackers exploit weaknesses. Key topics includes with: •Phishing •Brute force attacks •SQL injection •Cross-site scripting (XSS) •Man-in-the-middle attacks •Ransomware and more. Trainers will start to study the attack lifecycle, consisting reconnaissance, weaponization, delivery, exploitation, & command and control phases.

Grasping network security is pivotal for securing IT infrastructure. This module introduces the OSI Model and describes how each of the seven layers plays a role in cybersecurity. Students will get trained about: •Secure communication protocols (HTTPS, SSL/TLS, SSH, SFTP, IPsec) •Firewalls and VPNs •Intrusion recognition or Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS) •Port security and access control mechanisms

The majority of cybersecurity experts use Linux as their primary platform. This module discovers: •Linux architecture and kernel •Basic and advanced Linux commands •User and file permissions •Kali Linux environment Aspirants will even more grab skills regarding certain major tools like Nmap, Netcat, & Wireshark, and learn to go through Kali Linux for cybersecurity testing.

This course deals about penetration testing, which involves simulating cyber attacks in order to expose weaknesses in systems. Trainers will learn about: •Stages of Penetration testing (pen testing): Planning, reconnaissance, scanning, exploitation, post-exploitation, and then reporting •Scoping and goal setting •Resource and time management •Rules of engagement and legal boundaries Planning is required to make sure a structured and ethical approach to security testing.

Effective penetration testing starts with detailed information gathering. This module teaches: •Passive and active intelligence gathering •WHOIS lookups •DNS reconnaissance •IP mapping •Social media footprinting Tools like Maltego, Recon-ng, and theHarvester are explored to collect OSINT (Open Source Intelligence).

Trainers are going to learn for identifying system and network weaknesses through scanning. Topics include: •Scanning Types: TCP, UDP, SYN, FIN, Xmas, and ACK scans •Enumeration of services, users, and shares •Tools such as Nmap, Unicornscan, Netcat, and Enum4Linux This stage assist map the attack surface of a system or network.

This relevant IT course teaches how to detect security flaws enabling automated vulnerability scanners. Sessions include: •Vulnerabilities types (examples, buffer overflows, privilege escalation) •Tools such as Nessus, OpenVAS, and Qualys Students will analyze scanner reports to determine the severity of detected vulnerabilities.

Now students learn how vulnerabilities are exploited in both Windows & Linux environments. Using frameworks such as Metasploit, they practice: · Launching payloads and reverse shells · Bypassing antivirus and firewall rules · Achieving and maintaining system access · Experiential training labs simulate real-world exploitation scenarios.

After achieving access, attackers perform several tasks to regulate persistence and hide their presence. This module comprises: •Privilege escalation •Data exfiltration techniques •Using Empire Framework •Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) •Introduction to malware analysis and persistence mechanisms

In this practical module, students execute simulated attacks within a lab setup using the skills acquired from previous modules. They understand: •Attack chains •Tool integration •Real-world case studies This module confirms learners can think like a hacker to make systems safe effectively.

This multi-part module explores: •Denial of service (DoS) and a specific type of attack called -Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack and how they impacts availability are included. •Social engineering methods like phishing, baiting, & pretexting •Steganography is the process of concealing information within images or files. Additionally, students dive into cryptography: •Confidentiality via encryption (AES, DES) •Integrity with hashing (MD5, SHA, HMAC) •Authentication and Non-Repudiation using Digital Signatures •Cryptanalysis, cryptosystems, algorithms, keys, plaintext, and ciphertext •Differences between symmetric and asymmetric encryption

The final module covers the cleanup and reporting process after a penetration test: •Clearing tracks (e.g., deleting logs, disabling test credentials) •Re-enabling alerts like IDS and IPS •Writing a professional penetration testing report detailing findings •Provide a remediation tactic with prioritized evaluates and long-term solutions. Students will learn how to effectively describe technical details to non-technical stakeholders, which is a fundamental ability for professionals in cybersecurity.
