Course Description

Cybersecurity is a constant challenge for all organizations. When talking about cybersecurity, Read Team and Blue Team are often mentioned as the Red Team that teaches the attacking techniques while the Blue Team helps us know how to defend. The only way to be good at cybersecurity is to learn both the techniques of an attacker as well as a defender. If you are someone who thinks like a hacker and want to deeply explore what are the threats are and how to protect yourself from such threats, then go for this course.


This course starts with setting up hacker’s development lab before moving to Red Team tactics, where you will learn the basic syntax for the Linux tools that are commonly used to perform the necessary operations. You will gain hands-on experience of using Red Team techniques with powerful tools such as Python and Kali Linux, which will enable you to discover vulnerabilities in your system and to exploit them. You will also learn how a system is usually compromised by adversaries, and how they hack user’s identity, and the various tools used by the Red Team to find vulnerabilities in a system.

In the next section, you will learn about the defense strategies followed by the Blue Team to enhance the overall security of a system. You will learn about an in-depth strategy to ensure that there are security controls in each network layer, and how you can carry out the recovery process of a compromised system. Finally, you will learn how to defend yourself from social engineering attacks.

Even thow techniques had not changed much since, tools have changed, disapeared or not installed by default anymore. A refresh should be planned.

The course is below beginner level and does not address the topics sufficiently

By Cristi Prodan on 9/28/2020

This was a bit too thin and very very general. I would recommend this to complete beginners only. Very high level tools.

By Ishtiyaq Shah on 5/19/2020

voiceover is a bit low.Need to increase backend voiceover to ensure students listen properly on speakers.

By Alkamzar Magao on 5/8/2020

This course is more of a Blue Team for personal use instead of for Corporate use.
