Advanced Certificate in Data Protection Operational Excellence Module 2: Information & Cyber Security for Managers - EXIN Certification
About This Course
This module provides participants with an understanding and hands on approach to information and cyber security from a management perspective. It answers 7 questions that all managers should be asking if to protect info security assets :
-What information does my department / function holds that needs to be secured?
-What is the value of those information assets? What are the risks?
-What are the organisational security policies in place?
-Do I know what needs to be done if there is a security incident?
-What are the security measures already in place (including staff training)?
-Can my business function continue to operate if there is a security incident?
-Are there any compliance requirements that can get me into trouble?
Participants will be able to create Information Security Policy, manage compliance using the online Data Protection Management System via a hands-on and practical based approach to secure your organisation and respond to incidents. The course has a heavy focus on hands-on activities (aided by a bundled data protection management system called DPMS) and assigments which are given to the participants based on ISO27001/02. (Participants have the option to sit for Exin's Infosecurity IS027001 Foundation exam - payable separately)
