📝 Course Description

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 monitoring course teaches comprehensive detection and observability strategies for proactive security operations. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn to instrument systems for security telemetry, build detection pipelines, configure alerting, and maintain monitoring coverage as environments evolve. Students gain the visibility and detection capabilities needed to catch threats early.
