Arpit Singh
has successfully completed the online, non-credit Specialization
Cybersecurity
A sequence of four 6-7 week courses followed by a culminating
6-week capstone course in which teams compete to build secure
systems, and find flaws in insecure ones.
The Cybersecurity Specialization covers the fundamental
concepts underlying the construction of secure systems, from the
hardware to the software to the human-computer interface, with
the use of cryptography to secure interactions. These concepts
are illustrated with examples drawn from modern practice, and
augmented with hands-on exercises involving relevant tools and
techniques. Successful participants will develop a way of thinking
that is security-oriented, better understanding how to think about
adversaries and how to build systems that defend against them.
