Cybersecurity is often defined as the protection of computer systems and networks from unauthorized or unwanted information disclosure, theft or damage. In this course, explore the potential impacts of a personal or business security breach, and discover the fundamentals of the confidentiality, integrity, and availability triad. Explore how baselining can be used to better understand an IT environment and learn to differentiate between natural, malicious human, chemical, and non-malicious threats. Explore security concerns as they relate to internal and external human activity, and discover how to identify drivers for security controls. Explore common functions and purposes of security controls and discover the importance of testing corrective controls in place. Lastly, explore how to differentiate between quantitative and qualitative risk analysis, as well as between data in motion and data at rest. This course was originally created by Global Knowledge (GK).
