Policies Incident Response
RCCE students will learn security policy development, implementation, and lifecycle management including information security policies, acceptable use policies, data classification policies, and incident response policies. RCCE students will learn to develop security policies aligned with organizational objectives and regulatory requirements, structure policy hierarchies (policies, standards, guidelines, procedures), obtain management approval and organizational buy-in, communicate policies effectively to employees, implement policy exceptions processes, conduct periodic policy reviews and updates, measure policy compliance, and enforce policies through technical controls and administrative processes. This incident response course prepares students to act decisively during security incidents with structured workflows and clear decision frameworks. Starting from foundational concepts, RCCE students will learn containment, evidence collection, eradication, and recovery procedures specific to this domain. Students practice incident scenarios that build the composure, coordination, and documentation skills essential for effective incident handling.
