Course Overview

Top
Information security rests on three pillars: people, processes and technology. The IT-Security world uses its own specific tools and jargon. This technical jargon may be quite difficult for people with a non-technical background. The S-ITSF course introduces you to the main technical tools and the related vocabulary in an accessible way.
