Confidentiality, integrity, and availability, otherwise known as the CIA triad, is a common information security model used by organizations to design and implement their overall security policies and frameworks. In this course, you will learn the basics of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and discover emerging challenges brought on by big data and the Internet of Things (IoT). Explore the stages of information security risk management (ISRM) and learn how to differentiate between various types of security controls. Discover techniques such as defense in depth, data classification, cryptography, access control, and governance, and the importance of having a sound incident response and management strategy in place. Lastly, learn about the role of investigations and forensics as well as the steps in a forensic investigation such as searching and seizing, acquisition, analysis, and reporting. After course completion, you'll be able to recognize common elements of information security.
