Explore fundamental defensive security solutions like firewalls, IDS, vulnerability scanners, and SIEM through different hands-on exercises.

In this module, you will learn how essential defensive security solutions work, such as firewalls, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), vulnerability scanners, and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Through hands-on exercises, you will learn how to use firewalls to allow or block traffic, IDS to detect intrusions, vulnerability scanners to find vulnerabilities, and the SIEM solution to monitor centralized security events. This module will equip you with the arsenal to protect digital infrastructure.

What are modules?

A learning pathway is made up of modules, and a module is made of bite-sized rooms (think of a room like a mini security lab).
