Cybersecurity Risk Management and Compliance
Cybersecurity Risk Management is an informed approach to planning, implementing, and operating in a connected environment through a risk-based approach, informed by business/mission objectives. This approach recognizes that cybersecurity is not an isolated function within any organization, but rather requires coordination with other organizational and executive functions – human resources, legal, finance, operations, technology. Identifying critical assets, and prioritizing their protection involves questions of risk tolerance, budget, law and policy. The course focuses the student on a broad range of topics relative to risk-based planning and implementation for enterprise cybersecurity in Federal Government IT environments. The major NIST Compliance Standards are discussed and analyzed in real world context.
