This course equips learners with the essential skills to analyze, configure, and apply Unix file permission models and shell environment settings with confidence. Starting from foundational concepts like symbolic and numeric permission representations, learners will explore user and group ownership management, special permission bits such as SUID, SGID, and Sticky Bit, and their impact on system security and accessibility. The course then transitions into Unix environment configuration, where learners will learn to define, export, and manage environment variables and startup profiles across both user and system levels.

By the end of this course, learners will be able to interpret complex permission strings, modify access controls appropriately, and optimize the Unix environment for streamlined command execution and secure multi-user interactions. The course is ideal for aspiring system administrators, developers, and IT professionals seeking practical Unix competency for real-world applications.
