Welcome to course 2 of 5 of this Specialization, Incident Response, BC, and DR Concepts.

This course focuses on the availability part of the CIA triad and the importance of maintaining availability of both human and system resources. These are usually accomplished through the implementation of Incident Response (IR), Business Continuity (BC) and Disaster Recovery (DR) plans. While these three plans may seem to overlap in scope, they are three distinct plans that are vital to the survival of any organization. After completing this course, the participant will be able to:  Explain how organizations respond to, recover from and continue to operate during unplanned disruptions. - Recall the terms and components of incident response. - Summarize the components of a business continuity plan. - Identify the components of disaster recovery. - Practice the terminology of and review incident response, business continuity and disaster recovery concepts. Agenda Course Introduction Module 1: Incident Response (IR) Module 2: Business Continuity (BC) Module 3: Disaster Recovery (DR) Module 4: Incident Response, Business Continuity, and Disaster Recovery Review This training is for IT professionals, career changers, college students, recent college graduates, advanced high school students and recent high school graduates looking to start their path toward cybersecurity leadership by taking the Certified in Cybersecurity entry-level exam. There are no prerequisites to take the training or the exam. It is recommended that candidates have basic Information Technology (IT) knowledge. No work experience in cybersecurity or formal education diploma/degree is required.

Welcome to course 3 of 5 of this Specialization, Access Control Concepts.

In Course 1, we introduced access control concepts. Now, we will take a more detailed look at the types of access control that every information security professional should be familiar with. We will discuss both physical and logical controls and how they are combined to strengthen the overall security of an organization. This is where we describe who gets access to what, why access is necessary, and how that access is managed. After completing this course, the participant will be able to:  Select access controls that are appropriate in a given scenario. - Relate access control concepts and processes to given scenarios. - Compare various physical access controls. - Describe logical access controls. - Practice the terminology of access controls and review concepts of access controls. Agenda Course Introduction Module 1: Key Concepts Module 2: Administrative Controls Module 3: Physical Controls Module 4:Logical Controls Module 5: Controls Review This training is for IT professionals, career changers, college students, recent college graduates, advanced high school students and recent high school graduates looking to start their path toward cybersecurity leadership by taking the Certified in Cybersecurity entry-level exam. There are no prerequisites to take the training or the exam. It is recommended that candidates have basic Information Technology (IT) knowledge. No work experience in cybersecurity or formal education diploma/degree is required.

Welcome to course 4 of 5 of this Specialization, Network Security.

In this course, we will look at computer networking and securing the network. In today’s world, the internet connects nearly everyone and everything, and this is accomplished through networking. While most see computer networking as a positive, criminals routinely use the internet, and the networking protocols themselves, as weapons and tools to exploit vulnerabilities and for this reason we must do our best to secure the network. We will review the basic components of a network, threats and attacks to the network, and learn how to protect them from attackers. Network security itself can be a specialty career within cybersecurity; however, all information security professionals need to understand how networks operate and are exploited to better secure them. After completing this chapter, the participant will be able to:  Explain the concepts of network security. - Recognize common networking terms and models. - Identify common protocols and ports and their secure counterparts. - Identify types of network (cyber) threats and attacks. - Discuss common tools used to identify and prevent threats. - Identify common data center terminology. - Recognize common cloud service terminology. - Identify secure network design terminology. - Practice the terminology of and review network security concepts. Agenda Course Introduction Module 1: Network Concepts and Models Module 2: Common Network Threats and Attacks Module 3: Network Security Infrastructure Module 4: Network Security Review This training is for IT professionals, career changers, college students, recent college graduates, advanced high school students and recent high school graduates looking to start their path toward cybersecurity leadership by taking the Certified in Cybersecurity entry-level exam. There are no prerequisites to take the training or the exam. It is recommended that candidates have basic Information Technology (IT) knowledge.
