Incident Response
Although network teams possess the tools needed to secure their infrastructures, they often lack the skills for managing the incident response process. This course provides students with the skills needed to create processes for appropriately responding to security incidents. Students will learn to evaluate at what point are computers shut down and the organization disconnected from the Internet. Students will learn to analyze when is it best to let the intruders continue, so we can further determine their motivations, or goals. These processes are critical to ensuring that an incident doesn’t create greater organizational damage.
