RHS333 - Red Hat Enterprise Security: Network Services

| Overview |
 |
Red Hat Linux has gained considerable momentum as the operating
system of choice for deploying network services such as web, ftp,
email, and file sharing. Red Hat's RHCE curriculum provides training
in deploying these services and on the essential elements of securing
them.
| Goal: |
 |
RHS333, Enterprise Security: Securing Network Services, goes beyond
the essential security coverage offered in the RHCE curriculum and
delves deeper into the security features, capabilities, and risks
associated with the most commonly-deployed services.
| Audience: |
 |
The audience for this course includes System administrators,
consultants, and other IT professionals responsible for the planning,
implementation, and maintenance of network servers. While the emphasis
is on running these services on Red Hat Linux, and the content and labs
will assume its use, system administrators and others using proprietary
forms of Unix may also find many elements of this course relevant.
| Prerequisites |
 |
RH253 Red Hat Linux Networking and Security Administration, or
RH300 RHCE Rapid Track Training and Certification Course, or
RHCE certification
or equivalent work experience is
required for this course. Course participants should already know the
essential elements of how to configure the services covered, as this
course will be focusing on more advanced topics from the outset.
