Web Site Security Messaging Servers Viruses

Training Provided by 123-CBT Computer Based Training This course is the second course in a two-part series on Web Site Security. This course will give students the skills and knowledge to identify and prevent more tactical security risks and measures. Students will learn how to implement message security via Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), a de facto messaging security standard. They will also learn how to identify and minimize security risks associated with Java, CGI scripts, and HTTP servers. Finally students will receive a detailed overview of Internet-transmitted viruses, virus prevention, and antivirus programs.
