Security training @ JCA

With the increase in security threats and professional exploitation by criminal organizations world wide, it is imperative to equip ICT professionals with up-to-date knowledge and real-world security skills to implement and manage safe corporate networks. John Cordier Academy provides you this training in different domains, helping you to keep abreast of the latest developments:

Independent technical training
Independent technical training: This training is mostly developed in-house and contains a large variety of courses, varying from basic courses to more advanced in-depth courses. Some highly appreciated courses are:
Learning Internet & intranet Security Fundamentals (LISF)		Providing a decent base on which you can build on, this course will allow you to understand the key components and fundamental technologies involved in the process of designing, implementing and maintaining a security infrastructure based on competence.
Hacking EXplained & Intrusion Detection (HEXID)		Guides you into the multi-coloured world of “hacking”. Starting from scratch, you will soon start to look differently at your networking infrastructure. Step by step, we will take a clear look at the fascinating - sometimes criminal - life on the other side of your firewalls. Indeed, in order to stay secure, you need a fresh and stimulating awareness. Furthermore, the knowledge of hacking taxonomies will help you considerably with the configuration and understanding of intrusion detection systems.
Web application security 101		Is an intensive course providing the basic knowledge of modern web application security testing practices and preparing the attendees for further advanced training on the subject. The focus of the course is to identify most common web-based vulnerabilities exceeding those covered by OWASP. Additionally, the course is intended to briefly cover technology-specific web security problems in Flash, Flex, Java Applets, Java Servlets, Web Browsers and Browser Extensions.

Physical security
Physical security infrastructures are more and more using the IP network as the platform. This course helps you to understand all components of an IP-centric video solution: the most used formats, the structure of an IP network are treated, cameras, video surveillance, streaming video, video conferencing and signaling protocols. More info about our "Video over IP" course.

Practical approach

John Cordier Academy has an impressive demo network with the sole purpose of training. Students can thus work on live equipment in a real environment and can build a real-life security experience without risking damage to production servers and infrastructure.

Adopting a very practical approach, our security programmes are known to promote active participation. Using tutorials, videos, case studies and many practical exercises, our training methodology inspires interest and encourages participation to generate a positive learning experience.
