Overview
Intrusion detection has grown from something that at one time was
considered a "black art" to a mainstream activity in organizations
throughout the world. There is a lot more to intrusion detection than
meets the eye, however. Intrusion detection involves considerably
more than deploying intrusion detection systems (IDSs), for example.
The particular manner in which IDSs are deployed greatly affects their
effectiveness, but few people genuinely understand the "in's and
out's" of intrusion detection sufficiently to deploy IDSs in an
optimal manner. Additionally, successful use of intrusion detection
requires establishing an infrastructure that includes appropriate
policy provisions, management oversight, incident response procedures,
and many other considerations.
This one day course "puts it all together" by providing attendees with
in-depth information about the most critical aspects of intrusion
detection. This course teaches attendees what they need to know
to set up an intrusion detection program and make sound technical
decisions concerning deployment of the various elements of these
programs. Attendees will perform a series of hands-on exercises to install, administer, and secure Linux.
Who Should Attend
This course is designed for a wide range of attendees, including
system and network administrators, IT staff, information security
staff, and auditors. It contains a mixture of technical and non-
technical information.Some knowledge of networking, Unix, Linux and
Windows operating systems will be helpful in understanding some of
the technical content of this course, but is not required.
