Short Description:
In Incident Response, instructors provide you with the forensic techniques to recognize, respond to, and recover not only from attacks.
Full Description:
Hackers and malicious insiders are an undeniable threat to a company's network. They have increasingly sophisticated tools and backdoor programs at their disposal to steal information, perform other unlawful or unauthorized activity and cover their tracks. Because of this level of sophistication, security professionals charged with protecting their organizations can be overwhelmed, causing attacks to be ignored or mistakenly diagnosed as "network problems."
Incident Response/Forensics is a powerful weapon against these network enemies. Traditional incident-response training often focuses on external attacks, paying little attention to insider threats, which could potentially be even more damaging. In Incident Response, instructors provide you with the forensic techniques to recognize, respond to, and recover not only from outsider attacks, but insider ones as well.
This course qualifies for up to 32 hours of CPE for CISSP/SSCP and 28 hours of CE for CISA/CISM holders.
What You Will Learn?
In this hands-on course, you will learn about the computer forensics process.
