Students are first introduced to cybersecurity & privacy policy frameworks, governance, standards, and strategy. Risk tolerance is critical when building a cybersecurity and privacy program that supports business goals and strategies. Risk management fundamentals and assessment processes will be reviewed in depth including the methodology for identifying, quantifying, mitigating and controlling risks. Asset classification and the importance of protecting Intellectual Property (IP) will prepare students to understand and identify protection mechanisms needed to defend against malicious actors, including industry competitors and nation states. Incident Response programs will cover preparation and responses necessary to triage incidents and respond quickly to limit damage from malicious actors. <\/p>\n\t\n\t<p class=\"\"><em>2026SPRGMETCS684O2, Mar 10th to Apr 27th 2026<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"responsive-table\">\n<table>\n\t<tr>\n\t\t<th>Days<\/th>\n\t\t<th>Start<\/th>\n\t\t<th>End<\/th>\n\t\t<th>Type<\/th>\n\t\t<th>Bldg<\/th>\n\t\t<th>Room<\/th>\n\t<\/tr>\n\t<tr>\n\t<td>ARR<\/td>\n\t<td>12:00 AM<\/td>\n\t<td>12:00 AM<\/td>\n\t<td><\/td>\n\t<td><\/td>\n\t<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>Format &amp;
