The IoT Security course teaches students “White Hat Hacker” skills to perform vulnerability and risk assessment, and research and recommend risk mitigation strategies for common security threats in IoT systems. These skills are highly relevant across IoT and other network architectures in order to discover cyber-security threats before the bad actors do.
Moreover, the new 1.1 version introduces a CTF-like IoT Security Game with 10 challenging missions. Students playing the game reinforce their cybersecurity skills, practice their communication and collaboration skills, and have fun in an end to end real world-like IoT system.
Benefits
Students seeking a career in the rapidly growing IoT and security domains will learn practical tools for evaluating security vulnerabilities in IoT solutions, perform threat modeling, and use risk management frameworks to recommend threat mitigation measures. These skills are relevant across IoT and other network architectures.
