Taught by best-selling author and trainer Sander van Vugt, Linux Security Complete Video Course covers every aspect of Linux security, including Linux operating system security, managing Linux user security, securing Linux services, and securing Linux infrastructure.

The topics in this course cover all the exam objectives and prepare you for the two most significant certifications in the field of Linux security: the Red Hat RHCA Server Hardening (EX413) exam and the LPIC-3 exam 303 "Linux Security" exam.

The material provided in this course is designed to help you learn and prepare in the best possible way.

In addition to the end-of-lesson labs, this course provides you with quizzes to help you learn content and prepare for the LPI Exam 303 test. You will also find interactive CLI sim exercises and drag-and-drop content exercises to help you retain knowledge.
