Learning Objective

  • To identify common gaps left exposed by ‘convenience-first' compliance practices.
  • To review what information is publicly exposed that an attacker can access right now.
  • To analyze how exploitation of the technologies you use can occur.
  • To discuss security information and event management (SIEM) to identify anomalous behavior that can indicate potential compromise.
  • To analyze if one is ready for an insider threat and if you have the technologies to safeguard against them.

Course Overview

Cybersecurity is anything but a static approach; 

It is an ever-changing process that evolves as threat actors do. No single audit alone can keep you ready. Doing just one penetration test can’t keep you secure. It takes layers of security and a holistic approach to getting a full understanding of your organization's unique threat surface. 

Taking any kind of “set it and forget it” or “check the box” mentality to cybersecurity leaves your organization and customers susceptible to a cyberattack. New vulnerabilities are released every day, and new exploits shortly follow.

This CPE course will answer the following questions:

  • What is cybersecurity? Why care about cybersecurity?
  • How to identify common gaps left exposed by ‘convenience-first' compliance practices
  • How to locate what information is publicly exposed that an attacker can access right now
  • How to understand how exploitation of the technologies you use can occur
  • How to tell if you are ready for an insider threat and if you have the technologies to safeguard against them
  • How to implement security information and event management (SIEM) to identify anomalous behavior that can indicate potential compromise

In this CPE Information Technology webinar, we will discuss and demystify common misconceptions about cybersecurity, the dangers of taking a static approach to cybersecurity, and how to properly map out your organization’s vulnerabilities to any remaining security gaps.
