Duration 4 Days 24 CPD hours This course is intended for This course assumes the student has successfully taken and passed the NCSF Foundation 2.0 course based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework version 1.1, release April 2018. Following the course introduction, the course provides an introduction to the intersection between digital transformation and cybersecurity, which is followed by an overview of the threat landscape. Following an approach to the implementation of cybersecurity controls, the course delves into an organizational approach to cybersecurity that starts governance, management, and a supportive culture,Finally, the course provides additional guidance for the cybersecurity practitioner to determine the current state, the desired state, and a plan to close the gap - and to do this over and over again to inculcate it into organizational DNA. Overview This course looks at the impact of digital transformation on cybersecurity risks, an understanding of the threat landscape, and an approach to the application of cybersecurity controls. It provides guidance for students on the best approach to design and build a comprehensive cybersecurity program. Executives are keenly aware of the risks but have limited knowledge on the best way to mitigate these risks. This course also enables our executives to answer the critical question - Are we secure? The class includes lectures, informative supplemental reference materials, quizzes, exercises, and formal examination. The exercises are a critical aspect of the course; do not skip them. Outcomes and benefits from this class is a practical approach that students can use to build and maintain comprehensive cybersecurity and cyber-risk management programs. This course is targeted at IT and Cybersecurity professionals looking to become certified on how to operationalize the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NCSP) across an enterprise and its supply chain. Digital Transformation Explores what the Practitioner needs to know about the relationship between digital transformation and cybersecurity Explain how to determine the impact of cybersecurity on DX. Explain the relationships between culture and digital transformation from the perspective of a practitioner. Explain the delivery of value to stakeholders in a DX & cybersecurity environment. Illustrate the interdependent relationship between cybersecurity and DX. Threat Landscape The Practitioner needs to understand what threat actors do and their capabilities. Compare the evolving attack type impact to the threat environment. Apply knowledge about the threat landscape to maintain a readiness to respond. Develop a risk profile based on business impact analysis Establish the relationship between awareness and training in the continual improvement of cybersecurity posture. Develop and treat training & awareness as a critical aspect of deterrence Use knowledge about the threat landscape as a predicate to the adoption and adaptation of your cybersecurity posture. The Controls This chapter provides a sample set of controls based on an informative reference. Understand the purpose goals & objectives for each control. Characterize & explain the informative reference controls Discover how to apply the controls in an organizational context. Adopt & Adapt Adopt is a decision about governance; adapt is the set of management decisions that result from the decision to adopt. Distinguish Adopt, Adapt, Management & Governance. Develop an approach to adoption & adaptation. Distinguish & demonstrate the impact of organizational culture on developing cybersecurity as a capability.

At its core, social engineering is not a cyber attack. Instead, social engineering is all about the psychology of persuasion: It targets the mind like your old-school grifter or con man. The aim is to gain the trust of targets, so they lower their guard, and then encourage them into taking unsafe actions such as divulging personal information or clicking on web links, or opening attachments that may be malicious. Learning Objectives The following are some of the key outcomes in this course: Understand Social Engineering and how to spot common infiltration methods Learn about the different types of social engineering attacks and how to avoid becoming a victim Understand what phishing is and how to spot the red flags of fraudulent emails Explore the best cybersecurity practices to protect your systems and accounts Learn about the five types of business email compromise Detect the warning signs of this scam and how to prevent attacks Target Audience Young Professionals
A robust cybersecurity policy protects secure, critical or sensitive data and prevents it from falling in to the hands of malicious third parties. Accounts that contain highly sensitive data often require multiple layers of security - or multifactor authentication (MFA). Personal security can't just be restricted to your computer. All of your devices, even those without internet connectivity, need protective measures. Learning Objectives The following are some of the key outcomes in this course: What are portable devices and removable media? Know the risks associated with using them and how you can safeguard your devices Understand the risks associated with portable devices and removable media Understand physical safety and the value of any effort to mitigate on-site threats to facilities, assets, and employees Target Audience Young Professionals
