This course focuses on network security and the use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) as an adjunct for maintaining network security when remote users require network access. Covering local and wide area networks, the course describes the use of firewalls, MZs, honeypots, screened subnets and secure subnets. The course covers the costs and performance tradeoffs when security is implemented using a variety of hardware and software techniques and covers issues related to security in computing and concepts of secure communications. VPNs are examined as a means of providing secure connections for remote users.
