| Computer Hacking Forensics Investigator: Forensics Process and Procedures | The Computer Hacking Forensics Investigator (CHFI) course will give participants the necessary skills to identify an intruder's footprints and to properly gather the necessary evidence to prosecute. Many of today's top tools of the forensic trade will be taught during this course, including software, hardware, and specialized techniques. The need for businesses to become more efficient and integrated with one another, as well as the home user, has given way to a new type of criminal, the "cyber-criminal." It is no longer a matter of "will your organization be compromised (hacked)?" but, rather, "when?" Today's battles between corporations, governments, and countries are no longer fought only in the typical arenas of boardrooms or battlefields using physical force. Now, the battlefield starts in the technical realm, which ties into almost every facet of modern day life. If you or your organization requires the knowledge or skills to identify, track, and prosecute the cyber-criminal, then this is the course for you. |

| Security+ Certification: Security Enforcement (Windows Server 2003) | In this lesson, you will perform routine tasks that ensure your organization stays in compliance with the organization security policy. Although this is not nearly as exciting as chasing attackers or managing a PKI, it is even more essential to the health of your security structure. All the effort you put into identifying potential security threats and securing the individual systems will not protect your company's sensitive data if the security policy is not adhered to. When there is a security breach, it is the administrators who ensure policy compliance that are held responsible. The policy is developed to protect company assets, and it is up to the security professionals to be sure the policy is followed. You will also learn to monitor the security infrastructure for any attempts to breach your organization's security. An advanced warning of an attack may give you just enough time to stop the attack before it really gets going. The only way you discover this intrusion early enough is when you are monitoring your infrastructure on a daily basis. |
| Security+ Certification: Public Key Infrastructure (Windows Server 2003) | In this course, you will learn to manage a public key infrastructure (PKI). The tasks involved in managing a PKI range from implementing a CA hierarchy to understanding how to restore the CA and restore lost keys. You will also learn what is involved in the day-to-day management of certificates. Regardless of how simple or complex your certificate hierarchy is, you will still need to do different tasks such as issue, revoke, renew, and eventually expire certificates. As a security professional, you will be the person responsible for certificate-based security management if your company implements a PKI. |
| Security+ Certification: System Hardening (Windows Server 2003) | In this lesson, you hardened your internal servers and the services they provide, along with the devices and computers that are exposed to the Internet. You also took the next step in securing your network by securing the network communication itself. By securing each of these systems, you provide a higher level of security to your internal network resources and make sure attackers can't access the data transfer between your systems and the Internet. |
