ST&E Training

Systems and Network Administrators and security analysts alike will benefit from this hands-on workshop where you will learn the art and science of performing vulnerability assessments and penetration tests. At our interactive training center, you will learn how to assess your organization's technical, administrative and physical vulnerabilities and how to implement countermeasures that mitigate your risk. From the history of hackers and defensive penetration testing to the latest hacker tools and techniques, you will learn how to test your networked system, analyze the results, identify the right countermeasures and reduce your risk. The hands-on computer exercises will take you step by step through the assessment process, including reconnaissance, enumeration, penetration, and analysis. The course will reinforce understanding of best practices and provide familiarity with effective security assessment tools (and a few little-known tricks-of-the-trade).
