Network Security

This course provides an exploration of modern network and cybersecurity principles, with a focus on both foundational theory and applied practice. Beginning with cryptography fundamentals and secure communication protocols, students progress through critical topics including firewalls, zero trust architectures, intrusion detection systems, and network protocol analysis.

In addition to technical concepts, the course emphasizes practical skills through tools like Wireshark, tcpdump, and penetration testing frameworks. By the end, students will have the fundamental knowledge and competency necessary to analyze, design, and implement robust network security architecture aligned with real-world threats and industry standards.
