About

The three pillars of Internet Security are Infrastructure, Applications and People. In this series of lectures we will examine those three pillars and how vital it is for individuals to understand the vulnerabilities of this technology so they can made informed decisions about risks and how they can reduce those risks for themselves and their colleagues.

First we will focus on the infrastructure: network; servers; operating systems and all those things that are mostly invisible. Moving up a level, into the visible realm, we discuss the application and see things like buffer overflows, viruses and how as application developers and users we can protect ourselves. Finally, it's all about people. The strongest security technology in the world is easily defeated if people don't understand their role in the whole system..
