Course Content
In today's age of advanced technology, we are fortunate enough to have easy access to an abundance of data through the internet and social media platforms. This data serves as a highly valuable resource for professionals in a multitude of fields, including business, science, and social science. To that end, this comprehensive course is designed to equip students with the skills necessary to effectively analyze complex data using Python programming. Throughout the course, students will learn to utilize powerful tools such as Numpy, Pandas for data analysis and Seaborn, Matplotlib for data visualization, all within the user-friendly Jupyter Notebook. In addition, the course will provide students with invaluable insights on how to collect, clean, prepare, and analyze time-series data. Furthermore, students will gain a deep understanding of how to apply linear regression models to predict unknown and future values, thereby enhancing their ability to make informed decisions based on data-driven insights.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to teach students how to collect, process, analyze, and interpret data securely, accurately, and meaningfully.
Students will be able to analyze events in the field of information security (such as security breaches, log records, and network traffic) using data analysis tools and methods, and will develop analytical thinking skills to support threat detection and decision-making processes.
