Security on the Apache Web Server

 Course Description
    Course Outline/Details

The Security on the Apache Web Server course describes potential security risks for web servers, and teaches students techniques for minimizing those risks. Students are taken through an in-depth comparison of three major web server products, with a specific comparison of the administrative features, content-enhancing features, and security features of each of the three. Finally, students are provided with an opportunity to incorporate their advanced skills into a real-world capstone project. In this project, students design a web server system and configuration that meets the needs of a hypothetical customer.

This course uses animations to demonstrate some of the concepts animations will appear either in a simple version without audio narration or in a more detailed Macromedia Flash version with audio. For viewers using Netscape Navigator, your browser automatically delivers the Macromedia Flash version if your system supports this. Viewers using Internet Explorer will initially see the simple version, but may choose to view the more detailed Macromedia Flash animation with audio instead. The next animation viewed reflects their last choice.
