Course Description

This Course is design to clear Network security Concepts. Network Security is needed to prevent and monitor unauthorized access, modification, misuse, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. As the internet evolves and computer networks become bigger and bigger, network security has emerged as one of the most important factors for companies to consider. BIT offer Certified Network Defense, Advanced Network Défense, Cisco Network Security Audit, Network Security Expert and many more to prevent unauthorized access, data theft, network misuse, device and data modification. CompTIA’s Network+ certification is an entry level vendor neutral certification for aspiring system and network administrators. The Network+ course provides basic training in managing, maintaining, troubleshooting, installing and configuring a network infrastructure.
