Python for Security

О курсе

This course features Coursera Coach! A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. In this course, you will dive into the world of Python programming and its applications in security testing. You'll learn how to use Python for tasks such as brute force password cracking, creating socket connections, port scanning, and more. By the end, you will be able to leverage Python to identify security vulnerabilities and perform security testing on networks and systems. The course takes you through key Python concepts step-by-step. First, you'll learn how to create socket connections and use them for building a port scanner. Then, you'll explore how to grab banners from open ports and learn about SSH brute-force attacks. Further, the course covers packet sniffing, analysis, and building your own TCP server. You'll integrate the knowledge gained through a comprehensive project that involves forwarding packet sniffers. This course is ideal for those who want to learn Python with a focus on cybersecurity and security testing. While prior programming knowledge is helpful, no experience with security testing is required.
