Security Architectures and Network Defence

It is assumed that students will already have some background in conventional, potentially insecure, data networks that is patchy and worthy of review. In particular, IPv4, and TCP / UDP are thoroughly covered, supported by extensive analysis of traffic flows using visualisation tools such as wireshark.

Security architectures to segregate differing trust domains via security devices, especially stateful packet filtering firewalls, are introduced and analysed, together with the mindset that any particular defence will fail at some point, necessitating layered defence in depth.
