Network Security Training Courses

BeyondCorp is an open source Zero Trust security framework that allows employees to work securely from any location without the need for a traditional VPN.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn hands-on how to set up a Zero Security system as they set up and deploy BeyondCorop in a live-lab environment.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

- Assess their organization's existing security model.
- Shift access controls from the perimeter to individual devices and users.
- Deploy applications using a user and device-centric authentication and authorization workflow.
- Understand, plan and implement a Zero Trust network within their organization.

Audience

- Network engineers
- Cyber security professionals
- System architects
- IT managers

Format of the Course

- Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice

Since all applications today heavily rely on communication and networks, there is no application security without network security.

This course focuses on network security with a software security viewpoint, and discusses common network attacks and defenses on different OSI layers, with an emphasis on application layer issues, tackling topics like session management or denial of service.

As cryptography is a critical aspect of network security, the most important cryptographic algorithms in symmetric cryptography, hashing, asymmetric cryptography, and key agreement are also discussed. Instead of presenting an in-depth mathematical and theoretical background, these elements are discussed from a merely practical, engineering perspective, showing typical use-case examples and practical considerations related to the use of crypto, such as public key infrastructures. Security protocols in many areas of secure communication are introduced, with an in-depth discussion on the most widely-used protocol families such as IPSEC and SSL/TLS.

Finally, typical crypto vulnerabilities are discussed – both related to certain crypto algorithms and cryptographic protocols, such as BEAST, CRIME, TIME, BREACH, FREAK, Logjam, Padding oracle, Lucky Thirteen, POODLE and similar, as well as the RSA timing attack. In each case, the practical considerations and potential consequences are described for each problem, again, without going into deep mathematical details.

Participants attending this course will

- Understand basic concepts of security, IT security and secure coding
- Learn about network attacks and defenses at different OSI layers
- Have a practical understanding of cryptography
- Understand essential security protocols
- Understand some recent attacks against cryptosystems
- Get information about some recent related vulnerabilities
- Get sources and further readings on secure coding practices

Audience
