Network Security Training provides a complete learning pathway for anyone who wants to understand how modern computer networks operate, how cyber threats target them, and how professionals defend them using ethical hacking techniques. This course is designed to take learners from foundational networking concepts through to advanced cybersecurity practices, ensuring they gain both technical knowledge and real-world defensive insight.

You will start by building a strong understanding of how networks function, including devices, topologies, transmission methods and data flow. This foundation allows you to see exactly where security risks emerge. You will then explore the OSI and TCP/IP models in depth, learning how data moves through networks and how attackers exploit weaknesses at different layers. These core models are essential for anyone aiming to work in cybersecurity, ethical hacking or IT infrastructure.

As you progress, the course introduces wireless networks, Wi-Fi technologies and the unique risks associated with them. You will examine how attackers target wireless systems and how encryption, authentication and access control can be used to secure them. The course also covers firewalls, honeypots and intrusion detection systems, giving you a clear understanding of how organisations monitor and defend their networks against real cyber threats.

A key strength of this training is its practical focus on attack methods and defence strategies. You will learn about port scanning, traffic sniffing, firewall bypass techniques and intrusion prevention, helping you understand both how hackers think and how security professionals stop them. The course finishes with physical security, incident response and professional cybersecurity frameworks, ensuring you understand how to manage and respond to breaches in real environments.

By completing this programme, you will have the confidence to understand network behaviour, recognise threats and apply structured defence methods across wired and wireless systems. Learners receive a free course completion certificate, with multiple premium certificate and transcript options available for purchase for those who need formal proof of achievement. You also benefit from 5-star rated student support available 24/7 via email, giving you continuous guidance throughout your learning journey.
