Cyber Security Fundamentals England, United Kingdom

Course details

Overview
To help address the global cyber security skills crisis head on ISACA has created Cybersecurity Nexus™ (CSX) a certification path for the cyber security professional.

The Cybersecurity (CSX) certification path starts with the knowledge-based Cybersecurity Fundamentals (CSX) Certificate for those who are new to the profession or are considering to change careers and centres the performance-based certification as the CSX Practitioner CSX Specialist and CSX Expert level. Cybersecurity Fundamentals (CSX) offers a knowledge-based Certificate in the concepts that frame and define the standards guidelines and practices of the industry.

Cyber security is a growing and rapidly changing field and it is crucial that the central concepts that frame and define this increasingly pervasive field are understood by professionals who are involved and concerned with the security implications of ;

In addition this practical cyber security knowledge training will prepare you for the ISACA Cybersecurity Fundamentals (CSX) exam. *CSX is a registered trademark of ISACA. The Cybersecurity Fundamentals (CSX) exam is an online closed book remotely proctored ;

The number of questions in each domain depends on the weight assigned. The exam takes 2 hours and the passing score is 65%. This 4-day training reviews a total of 5 exam domains:

• Domain 1 - Cyber security concepts
• Domain 2 - Cyber security architecture principles
• Domain 3 - Security of networks systems applications and data
• Domain 4 - Incident response
• Domain 5 - Security implications and adoption of evolving technology

Objective
In this 4-day training you will learn to:

• understand basic cyber security concepts and definitions
• understand basic security architecture principles
• understand security of networkssystemsapplications and data
• define types of incidents and identify elements of an incident response plan
• explain the core Information Assurance (IA) principles
• identify the key components of cyber security network architecture
• apply cyber security architecture principles
• describe risk management processes and practices
• identify security tools and hardening techniques
• distinguish system and application security threats and vulnerabilities
• describe different classes of attacks
• define types of incidents including categoriesresponses and timelines for response
• describe new and emerging IT and Information Security (IS) technologies
• analyze threats and risks within the context of the cyber security architecture
• appraise cyber security incidents to apply appropriate response
• evaluate decision making outcomes of cyber security solutions
• access additional external responses to supplement knowledge of cyber security

In addition you will be prepared to take the ISACA Cybersecurity Fundamentals (CSX) Certificate exam.
