In its third year of being offered and the second course of this year, Ernst & Young`s popular counterhack course will include a module on the Electronic Communications and Transactions (ECT) Bill and how the Bill will affect hackers, hacking and the security of organisations.
The counterhack course is an intensive five-day "hands-on" hacking course, designed to teach participants the mindset, tools and techniques used by hackers. Participants will gain firsthand insight into how hackers hack and how to protect their organisations from intrusions.
The course content will cover Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Unix, firewalls, wireless, Web hacking and the ECT Bill, making it the most up-to-date of all hacking courses both locally and internationally.
Approximately half the classroom time will be spent performing hands-on exercises where participants will be presented with a series of real-world scenarios designed to ensure participants fully grasp the concepts and techniques.
The next course will be held from 22 - 26 July 2002 Venue: Ernst & Young`s state-of-the-art office in Wanderers, Johannesburg. Time: 8am-5pm each day
