Windows Kernel Programming 40 Academic Hours Windows Kernel Programming Outline The cyber security industry has grown considerably in recent years, with more attacks that are sophisticated and consequently more defenders. To have a fighting chance against sophisticated attacks, kernel mode drivers must be employed, where nothing (at least nothing from user mode) can escape its eyes. The course provides the foundations for the most common software device drivers that are useful not just in cyber security, but also other scenarios ...
