INTRODUCTION TO SCRIPTING FOR
CYBERSECURITY

MC-2600

Coding is the heart of cybersecurity. It is important that cybersecurity personnel in various job roles understand programming tools so that they can decipher the overall strategies, tactics and goals of attackers. In addition, they often use scripting languages to create programs that will carry out specific or repetitive cyber operations. Four of the most widely used scripting languages include – Python, Powershell, Bash and Ruby.

Some of the most common cybersecurity-related job roles and their relationships with coding include: Penetration testers, Incident responders, and Cyber System Analysts.

This course introduces the student to these scripting languages and leads them to develop applications to perform cybersecurity-related activities.
