Objective

The course concentrates on hardening a technical environment before a cyber incident has happened. Students focus on these technical controls how they actively prevent a cyber incident with group work and personal assignments. If the prevention isn’t sufficient the incident handling is also investigated and reported by Indicators of Compromise.
Main topics are updated each year, but mainly they correlate and draw inspiration from e.g. CIS Critical Security Controls and other related public recommendations. The students learn to implement these technical controls and test/audit them on the next course "Auditing and Testing Technical Security".
