This course is designed to help students build and maintain a truly defensible security architecture, while taking them on a journey towards implementing Zero Trust principles, pillars and capabilities. There will be a heavy focus on leveraging current infrastructure and investment. Students will learn how to assess, re-configure and validate existing technologies to significantly improve their organizations’ prevention, detection and response capabilities, augment visibility, reduce attack surface, and even anticipate attacks in innovative ways. The course will also delve into some of the latest technologies and their capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses. You will come away with recommendations and suggestions that will aid in building a robust security infrastructure, layer by layer, across hybrid environments, as you embark on a journey towards Zero Trust. 23 Hands-On Labs + Capstone Secure the Flag Challenge
