Ethical Hacking: Evading IDS, Firewalls, and Honeypots — Lynda — Updated 2/10/2021 Ethical hacking—testing to see if an organization’s network is vulnerable to outside attacks—is a desired skill for many IT security professionals. In this course, cybersecurity expert Malcolm Shore prepares you to take your first steps into testing client defenses. Malcolm provides you with an overview of firewall technology, detailing how firewalls work in both Windows and Linux, as well as how to set up a firewall simulation in a GNS3 network. Next, he goes over web application firewalls, API gateway threat mitigation solutions, and how to use honeypots to detect intruders. Finally, he covers the main ways to manage a suspected intrusion, including how to use the Security Onion intrusion detection system (IDS). Note: The topics covered in this course are drawn from the Evading IDS, Firewalls, and Honeypots competency in the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) body of knowledge. Topics include: Applying the basics of the Windows Firewall Using advanced features in the Windows Firewall Reviewing firewall logs Linux iptables Setting up an iptables firewall Managing rules with Firewall Builder Setting up a Cisco PIX firewall Installing GNS3 How web application firewalls protect web servers Protecting API services with the WSO2 gateway Running the Cowrie honeypot Detecting intrusions with Security Onion [Hidden Content]] [hide][Hidden Content]]
