Security on the Apache Web Server
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.
