DEGREE/DIPLOMA/CERTIFICATE COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

where Nmap is used as a penetration testing tool. Students will be introduced to Wireshark interface, how to capture tra ffi c, create and apply capture fi lters, de fi ne time values, and interpret basic trace fi les such as ARP, HTTP, HTTPS, Telnet, FTP, SSH. Students also will be introduced to Nmap and its capability as a security tool to scan di ff erent operating systems. ITSEC-166 Credits: 3 Advanced Forensics This course will address advanced topics in computer forensics, mobile forensics, network forensics and incident response. Topics such as data hiding, encryption, advanced Windows registry, steganography and password recovery. Prerequisite(s): Complete ITSEC-126. ITSEC-176 Credits: 3 Malware Forensics This course will start from malware basics and gradually teach the learners how to perform a malware forensic investigation as a part of incident response. In addition, an introduction to reverse-engineering malware will be provided. Since familiarity with programming is necessary for this course, an introduction to programming using Python and/or C is covered at the beginning of the course. In addition, general familiarity with networking and TCP/IP, operating system internals (Windows and Unix), computer security, digital forensics and incident response is very essential for this course. ITSEC-191 Credits: 1 Information Systems Security Internship 2 Students will explore the fi eld of professional computing, information technology and information systems security by working in a real work environment, and apply the skills gained from previously taken courses from the Information Systems Security program. The practical work experience will be gained under the supervision of an information technology professional supervisor in day- to-day, onsite technical work. Prerequisite(s): Complete INTRN-796 with minimum grade of C. ITSEC-194 Credits: 1 Security Project Implementation This course helps students gain in-demand skills. The course emphasizes real and hands-on experience in di ff erent areas of security such as security assessment, virtualization, log fi le consolidation, design and installation of security tools such as fi rewalls, IDSs, VPNs, and other existing or new technologies.

ITSEC-136

Unix/Linux Administration and Security Unix/Linux server hardening methods and tools are covered in this course. In addition, the security tools and application inside Unix/Linux are taught. Particularly, students will learn how to protect password fi les, monitor log fi les, use port scanners, network scanners, traceroute and ping. Additional topics include secure remote connections such as SSH. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-124 and ITNET-161, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. ITSEC-140 Credits: 3 security and introduces routers and their con fi gurations, routing and routed protocols, assess list, NAT. con fi guring network access server for Cisco Secure ACS and TACACS+ and RADIUS. Basic fi rewall con fi guration and IDS/IPS concepts also are covered. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-124, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. ITSEC-145 Credits: 3 Perimeter Security This course covers advanced router con fi guration, advanced fi rewall con fi guration and management, VPN solutions, con fi guration and management of IDS/IPS, log monitoring, consolidation and reporting. Designing secure network architectures also is covered. Labs utilize a variety of equipment and software from a number of di ff erent vendors. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-140, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. ITSEC-146 Credits: 3 Security Measures and Intrusion Detection This course is concerned with the collection of events from audit trails, network monitoring systems and intrusion detection systems, as well as developing a system to provide early warning of information attack. The class teaches students how to identify, exploit and secure well-known and little- known vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows and Unix/Linux operating systems. Moreover, it explores common weaknesses in router and fi rewall installations, teaching the methods that are used to circumvent traditional and “hardened” security fi lters or fi rewalls. This core technology area also is concerned with fusion of data from multiple sensors to form a real-time picture of the Information Assurance battle space. Protective measures and Incident Response Checklist are covered in this course. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-135 or ITSEC-136, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. Router Security This course covers general network

Securing Wireless Devices and Networks Students learn wireless network fundamentals and physical layer standards to build and secure WLAN; to install, con fi gure and manage Cisco Air Connect and 3Com AirConnect security and network security settings; and troubleshooting. Devices such as PDAs, wireless cameras and other cutting- edge technologies will be explored. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-124, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. ITSEC-151 Credits: 3 IT – Auditing In this course, all six domains of the Certi fi ed Information Systems Auditor (CISA) exam is covered including the knowledge and technical concepts as speci fi ed by CISA certi fi cation. These domains include Information System Auditing Process, IT Governance, System and Infrastructure Lifecycle Management, IT Service Delivery and Support, Protection of Information Assets, Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery. MATC strongly recommends that students complete ITSEC-114, or have the equivalent skills, prior to enrollment in this course. ITSEC-152 Credits: 3 Information Security Risk Management This course will introduce the student to information security risk management frameworks, based on internationally accepted standards from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and others. Students will become familiar with the basic aspects of the various standards and will practice their use in measuring risks related to security, regulatory compliance and audits. At course completion, students will have an understanding of risk management strategies and practices, as well as some basic skill in practical application of those strategies. ITSEC-156 Credits: 3 Mobile Devices Forensics In this course, students will learn the history and evolution of mobile forensics, understand the cellular network and components, learn the legal aspects in obtaining cellular evidence. Also the class will cover imaging mobile devices, understanding cellular records and its use in cellular evidence. Students will learn the ability to utilize forensics tools to conduct analysis of mobile devices; in addition, to be able to create evidence case report. Prerequisite(s): Complete ITSEC-126. ITSEC-164 Credits: 1 Packet Analysis (Wireshark/Nmap) In this course, students will be introduced to Wireshark and Nmap. Wireshark is a tool used for troubleshooting network problems,
