       ensure the integrity and privacy of your Web data,'' he continued.
       ``Participants gain extensive hands-on experience in securing and
       hardening a Web server, installing a proxy server, encryption and
       authentication.''

       intranet/Internet curriculum, which includes Introduction to the
