Complexity, data structures, searching and sorting not covered in 3010, graphs, and mathematical algorithms.

The course is an applied approach with hands-on labs throughout the book that challenge you to practice and synthesize your skills as you dissect actual malware samples, and pages of detailed dissections offer an over-the-shoulder look at how the pros do it. You will learn how to crack open malware to see how it works, determine what damage it has done, thoroughly clean your network, and ensure that the malware never comes back. Malware analysis is a cat-and-mouse game with constantly changing rules, so make sure you have the fundamentals.

The course will introduce the principles and techniques associated with the cybersecurity practice known as penetration testing or ethical hacking. The course covers planning, reconnaissance, scanning, exploitation, post-exploitation, and result reporting. The student discovers how system vulnerabilities can be exploited and learn to avoid such problems.
