LearnNow Online

Updated Aug 21, 2018

Course description

There are many different types of Malware from trojans and worms to viruses and backdoors. Learning about how each threat is different is key and about how to mitigate it. Examples will be shown with Wireshark and how to interact with Packets. Also the human element of Ethical Hacking will be covered. Perhaps a company is very good in network security but lacking in physical security. This is an area that social engineering can come into play. How do you case an establishment and look for week points in the human element? And also how can you attempt to mitigate these threats. This course is part of a series covering EC-Council's Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH).

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.
