As organisations embrace the digital revolution, so do cyber criminals. Malicious cyber activities have evolved in sophistication, and stealth and teamwork are required to counter this. Not only cybersecurity professionals, ICT professionals too need to play their part in helping their organisations protect their assets from the ever-pervasive cyber threats.

The objective of this course is not to turn ICT professionals into cybersecurity professionals, but to equip them with sufficient cybersecurity knowledge so that they can incorporate security into their work at the outset rather than as an afterthought or, worse still, not at all.

Key Takeaways

At the end of the course, learners will be able to: 

●  Perform cybersecurity risk assessment in their area of work.

●  Recommend appropriate cryptographic algorithms to achieve specific cybersecurity objectives.

●   Perform threat modelling.

●  Design a simple secure network architecture.
 

Structure

● Course duration: 6 weeks (online). 

● Learners' time commitment: 3 to 3.5 hours per week. 

● This course has 4 synchronous live sessions - group activities, discussions, feedback and interactions. 

● Throughout the course, learners are expected to actively contribute to the group activities and are encouraged to apply the knowledge learnt.

Who Should Attend

This course is appropriate for non-cybersecurity ICT professionals, such as: 

●  System administrators
