Linux is the backbone of modern cyber security infrastructure. From security monitoring systems to penetration testing tools, most cyber security platforms operate on Linux environments.

This course introduces the essential Linux skills required by cyber security professionals. Learners will understand Linux system architecture, command-line operations, file permissions, system monitoring, user management, and system hardening techniques used to secure Linux servers.

Students will also explore how attackers target Linux systems and how security professionals detect and defend against these threats.

By the end of this course, learners will gain hands-on knowledge of Linux security practices used by SOC analysts, security engineers, and ethical hackers.
