The ongoing tense IT security situation requires experts to have comprehensive knowledge in order to protect the infrastructures of companies and government organizations from attacks. Instead of just reacting to external events, the view of potential attackers on systems that need to be protected is particularly important in order to better secure them.

IT professionals who are interested in these security precautions can get an introduction to the world of good hackers in our fundamentally updated webinar series “Ethical Hacking for Admins – Pentesting for Secure IT” from the heise academy. In five webinars with a total of 20 hours of professional knowledge, you will become a penetration tester and learn how to collect information about systems accessible on the Internet, what typical vulnerabilities look like and how to plan and execute attacks.
Pentesting and more
Participants in the webinar series will learn everything you need to know to examine systems for vulnerabilities and close them, from pentesting basics to security gaps, AD security and cloud security. This webinar series covers typical security gaps in network protocols and injection attacks of all kinds against web applications. The IT security experts Jan-Tilo Kirchhoff and Sebastian Malin rely on numerous clear examples and impart their knowledge with many practical exercises. The dates for each event are:
- April 24: Pentesting Basics and Information Gathering with Ethical Hacking
- May 15: Uncover security gaps in public IT infrastructure
- May 22: Secure internal networks & Active Directory beyond the firewall
- June 5th: Web Application Security and the OWASP Top 10
- June 19: Cloud Security Testing: Pentesting for AWS, Azure and Co.
The webinars each last four hours and take place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Participation in a webinar costs 169 euros (all prices including VAT). If you want to book all five dates at once, you can save a lot with the combination ticket for 595 euros.
All participants can not only look forward to a lot of practice and interaction, but also have the opportunity to repeat and deepen what they have learned with all the recordings and materials afterwards. Questions are answered directly in the live chat and participants can also exchange ideas with each other on the topic. Subsequent access to the videos and exercise materials is included.
Those interested can find further information and tickets on the webinar series website. If you want to stay up to date with what the heise academy offers, you can sign up for the newsletter.
