Vulnerability Assessments

Vulnerability Assessments are a critical component of risk management, identifying, quantifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities in a system. Coursera's Vulnerability Assessment catalogue teaches you about the methodologies and tools used to perform these assessments across various system platforms. You'll learn the process of defining, identifying, classifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities in computer systems, applications and network infrastructures and providing the organization with the necessary knowledge, awareness and risk background to understand the threats to its environment. The skills you'll acquire will help strengthen security, protect data, and maintain system integrity in roles such as IT security analyst, system administrator, or cybersecurity consultant.
