The computer network has become more and more complex over the past few years and so has the threats to its security. The impact of security breaches on organizations vary from monetary loss, reputation damage, waning customer loyalty, diminishing investor confidence, to legal consequences. It does not matter if an organization installs the state of the art security software solutions or if it spends thousands of dollars on the security mechanisms; the fact remains that no organization is completely secure. Organizations need a security specialist who can help mitigate security threats.

Network security plays a vital role in most organizations. It is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of an organization’s networking infrastructure. It protects networks and their services from unauthorized modification, destruction, or disclosure. Network security assures that a network performs its critical functions securely without any harmful side effects.

Security awareness and well-structured training can help find the weaknesses of a network and keep network administrators abreast of the latest threats and techniques by gaining a better understanding of risk exposure as well as the newest countermeasures.

The Network Defense Engineer (NDE) program covers the fundamental concepts of network security. It equips students with the skills required to identify the increasing network security threats that reflect on the organization's security posture and implement general security controls to protect the underlying networking infrastructure from unauthorized access, modification, destruction, or disclosure.

This program gives a holistic overview of the key components of network security. The course is designed for those interested in learning the various fundamentals of network security and who aspire to pursue a career in network security.
