In this course, learners will start by exploring the basics of system security and its implementation at the operating system level. Learn about implementing authentication and authorization as a means to protect access to data and services. Additionally, learn about detecting unauthorized changes to a system and how to effectively counter them. By the end, learners will understand how to build logging, monitoring, and auditing tools that can alert them to system security breaches and how to effectively counter them in a real-world case.
