ISY 280 Advanced Security Topics

This is a hands-on course that emphasizes defense, detection, and administration. The course is arranged around a series of competitive team-based laboratory exercises for four different teams of students in an isolated test laboratory. In each exercise, students design and construct their own network of test machines using a variety of operating systems. They also set up and securely configure one or more remote services (e.g. SMG, NFS, SSH, Web). During the exercise, each team must verify that the services provided by opposing teams for which they have authentication credentials are correctly functioning. They then try to gain access to all of the remaining services and the remote host itself, if possible. Once the live portion of the exercise has been completed, students review their logs to try to determine who accessed their network, and whether they did so legitimately or illegitimately.
