Course Description
In this course, you will learn how the three pillars of the information security spectrum—people, processes, and technology—are used to build cybersecurity programs and create measures to identify and combat attackers. You will also learn about the three pillars used by hackers—tactics, techniques, and procedures—and how to recognize each.
What You'll Learn
- Identify the three pillars of the information security spectrum: people, processes, and technology
- Build cybersecurity programs using the people, processes, and technology pillars
- Create measures to identify and combat attackers
- Recognize the three pillars used by hackers: tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)
- Explain the importance of understanding TTPs
Key Takeaways
- The information security spectrum is built on three pillars: people, processes, and technology.
- These three pillars are used to build cybersecurity programs and create measures to identify and combat attackers.
- Hackers operate using their own three pillars: tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).
- Understanding attackers' tactics, techniques, and procedures helps defenders recognize each of them.
