About the Training

The Introduction to Cyber Attacks and Defense Training provides participants with a fundamental understanding of cyber threats and attacks, along with defense strategies to protect against them. Below are the typical elements of this training:

  1. Understanding Cyber Threats and Attacks:
    • This section defines different types of cyberattacks and threats, offering insights into how they are carried out. It covers viruses, Trojans, ransomware, and other malicious software.
  2. Defense Strategies:
    • Participants learn how to defend against cyber threats and attacks. Topics include firewalls, antivirus software, patch management, and other protective techniques.
  3. Attack Detection and Monitoring:
    • This section focuses on recognizing the signs of a cyberattack and learning how to monitor these activities. The use of intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS) is also covered.
  4. Incident Response and Recovery:
    • Participants learn how to respond to a cyber incident and maintain business operations after an attack. Incident handling and recovery plans are discussed.
