It seems like hardly a week goes by without a high-profile computer breach. Why do these happen? How can you prevent them? This course doesn’t have all the answers, but it does outline practices that make life harder for attackers and that will help tide you over until you get a full-time security team in place.

In this course, you will learn 5 simple, yet effective, techniques for preventing attackers from getting into your system. These techniques are related to: patching, software vulnerabilities, cryptography, windows security, and phishing. Within each chapter you will learn the best practices for preventing vulnerabilities and how to make them more detectable. 

This course is based on the Pragmatic Programmers’ book, Practical Security, and is aimed at developers, admins, team leads, architects, technology generalists, and all others who stand guard against the things that disrupt the network.

Practical Security: Simple Practices for Defending Your Systems

## Anyone who wants to keep the network secure
This course is for developers, admins, team leads, architects, technology generalists, and all others who stand guard against the things that go bump in the network. It’s particularly for those who work in organizations that don’t have dedicated security staff or who don’t have much interaction with dedicated security staff. 

If you thought that a couple of those job titles could apply to you, this course is for you. Sometimes these kinds of organizations are startups. Sometimes they’re software development teams in large, well-established companies who have been left on their own to determine their own security posture alongside their regular day job of building useful software systems.
