Network Engineering (Cybersecurity) introduces computer networks and security fundamentals. It explains the evolution of networks and the Internet. It presents OSI and TCP/IP reference models clearly. It outlines different network types and structures. It introduces basic security principles. It identifies common network threats and vulnerabilities. The course then explores data communication and routing security. It explains data link protocols and switching technologies. It covers IP addressing, subnetting, and secure routing methods. It discusses TCP and UDP services and vulnerabilities. It introduces transport security protocols. It presents routing and transport layer attack defences. It addresses compliance in routing and transport environments. The programme then examines defensive architectures. It explains stateless, stateful, and next-generation firewalls. It introduces IDS and IPS systems. It covers VPN technologies and Zero Trust network architecture. It explains secure wireless and mobile networking. It presents secure configuration and hardening standards. The course then moves to cryptography and advanced network security. It explains cryptography fundamentals and PKI. It covers digital certificates and secure authentication. It discusses VPNs, SSL/TLS, and secure device management. It explores cryptography in cloud and emerging networks. It outlines compliance considerations for cryptography. The programme then examines threats, vulnerability analysis, penetration testing, and SIEM systems. It explains incident response and digital forensics in networks. It addresses governance, risk, compliance, ethics, legal issues, and privacy. Finally, it explores AI-driven threat detection, SDN security, IoT risks, quantum-safe cryptography, and policy trends.
