Abstract

Penetration testing course materials, including syllabus, labs, midterm practicum and final paper. This course is an advanced course which will give students an understanding of network vulnerabilities and how to prevent them. Students will utilize hands-on experiences to setup and test baseline security settings on their networks. Once the vulnerabilities have been identified students will create a plan to address identified vulnerabilities to keep malware and hackers out of their networks. The final stage will be to re-test the network to verify their changes created a secure network.
