Information Security Architecture

In this program participants will learn how to create and validate an information security architecture (ISA) that will promote interoperability with the physical, administrative/operational, and technical aspects of security. Review how to implement an ISA that will interact with the business drivers and information processes of the organization and that will protect its network infrastructure. Understand guidelines and leading practices that link all of the necessary security controls to a combination of design, baseline administrative controls, business drivers, legal requirements, and threat scenarios. Working through case studies and real-world solution examples, program particpants will focus on the advanced concepts and components that need to be known to design, build and implement an effective information security architecture.
