Linux Kernel Internals
From kernel module implementation to memory and process management, Linux Kernel Internals teaches you the fundamentals of developing for the Linux kernel. Equipped with a laptop with all the necessary tools, you will set up a development environment for Linux and then learn to build kernel modules that interact with I/O, memory, processes, file systems, and networking. This course also takes a deep dive into the Linux-specific obfuscation methods frequently used by attackers to escape detection. This course is perfect for those looking to start low-level kernel development for this popular operating system.

Training Details
Our 5 day training doesn’t consist of a set of video lectures followed by unguided work assignments, as is the case with all other Linux Kernel Internals training programs.
Instead, our proprietary Artificial Intelligence-based training platform delivers you bite-sized knowledge that is immediately followed by hands-on exercises, during which the platform watches your every step and helps you with contextual help, hints, and templates, as needed; and you have a personal tutor and coach who help you every step of the way.
After successfully completing this course, students will be able to:
- Set up a development environment for Linux
- Describe in detail how the Linux kernel functions
- Develop Linux kernel modules that interact with I/O, memory, processes and threads, file systems, and networking
- Detect and analyze obfuscation methods used by attackers to evade detection
Learners will be required to:
- Build a rootkit to a set of given functional requirements, implemented as a Linux kernel module
Sometimes an organization needs to go above and beyond standard incident response procedures and conduct a deep investigation into a compromised system. These specialty courses are designed for experienced analysts, enabling them to investigate complex or targeted threats.
- Experience in C programming
- Knowledge of systems programming in a UNIX-based environment
- Familiarity with standard UNIX tools such as vi, Emacs, and gcc
