Course Description
Students will participate in team-based, controlled war games within Champlain College's virtual system infrastructure. This will provide students a clear understanding of how to improve defenses. They will be expected to write incident reports, lessons learned, after action reviews and improvement proposals as part of this class.
Learning Objectives
- Recommend a strategy to improve existing network and system protection schemes based on observed attack patterns.
- Select and apply exploits based on known or observed vulnerabilities in order to better protect systems.
- Assess attack strategies through the use of analysis techniques and recommend defenses to those attacks.
- Analyze common intrusion patterns to identify potential attack vectors in order to strategically enhance defenses.
