InfoSec — Introduction to Information Security
This course provides engineers and project managers in a range of sectors (e.g. Defence, Transport, Commercial etc.) with an appreciation of the Information Security issues relating to systems development. Attendees will get an overview of the main processes required for designing more secure systems. Exercises will provide consolidation of the theory presented.
Infosec is cost-effective and integral to systems engineering
Information Security (Infosec) is often seen as an expensive and unnecessary burden to system implementation and operation. Yet well-publicised security breaches of today's systems are evidence of inadequate protection and an integrated engineering approach can actually reduce the overall cost of system development. Cost savings come where protection of information assets is an integral aspect of a system's fitness for purpose and through avoiding the need for expensive re-engineering to achieve system integrity.
Free yourself from continual reliance on expensive InfoSEC engineers
Increase your capabilities while reducing costs, risks and reliance on external consultancy. Through knowledge/ skill transfer your teams get the expertise and knowledge to ensure systems engineering projects run smoothly and deliver results. This is backed-up with support via top-up training, engineering resources and advice. Increase your teams' capabilities and save money by only calling in experts when you need them.
Training Objectives
This course will provide an introduction to Information Security within the scope of systems engineering along with its dependence and impact on other disciplines. At the end the course participants will have a better understanding of how to achieve a more coherent system development approach incorporating inherent security architectures.
A Training Objective (TO) is a precise statement of the skills and knowledge following any training session. The table below details the TOs for the Introduction to Information Security Course.
