As cybersecurity threats become increasingly frequent and sophisticated, organisations of all stripes require the expertise to remain secure.

 

This course is ideal for all cybersecurity managers wanting to gain a sound understanding of the technologies that play a key role in organisations’ perimeter and interior defences.

 

Developed with the Academic Centre of Cybersecurity Excellence (ACCSE), this course is aligned with industry standards.

 

Explore technologies for perimeter defence

Examine a range of technologies that construct a protective ‘shield’ and build a secure perimeter for organisations. Consider potential perimeter vulnerabilities and the role and function of firewalls and VPN technologies.

 

Examine technologies for interior defence

Consider technologies that build interior defences, including the role, function and vulnerabilities of identity and access management, intrusion detection systems and anti-malware solutions.

 

Apply your knowledge in a case analysis

Drawing on your new knowledge, you'll conduct a case analysis of the deficiencies in cybersecurity technologies in the perimeter and interior defences of an organisation, and recommend how to improve them.
