About this event
If you’re interested in getting hands-on with cybersecurity, setting up your virtual lab is a great place to start.
Virtual machines (VMs) provide a safe sandboxed environment for you to tinker, test, and try your hand at new hacking skills, without fear of damaging your system.
In this beginner-friendly workshop hosted by Flatiron School, you’ll learn about the benefits of virtualization technology and follow along as we set up Ubuntu Linux. No experience is required — just show up, and learn something new!
We’ll cover:
- The benefits of virtualization vs. bare metal systems
- Types of virtualization
- How to install and set up Ubuntu Linux
Whether you’re curious about a career in cybersecurity or just interested in learning how to protect yourself, our Cybersecurity for Beginners series is the perfect place for cyber n00bs to get familiar with the basics.
