Help your organization produce a comprehensive security posture by developing generally accepted practices. In this training course, you learn how perform security breaches with techniques from the FISMA Risk Management Framework, utilize protocol analyzers to track live attacks, analyze the effectiveness of security controls, and recommend improvements to block attacks.

Du kommer lära dig att:

• Protect assets by selecting and managing effective security controls
• Evaluate the thoroughness and quality of security controls
• Do more than just "security theater"
• Provide and monitor a comprehensive, strong defence
• Integrate accessibility into services and environments

Recommended förkunskaper:

Previous experience in networking and TCP/IP protocol stack Technical background in networking and security terms
