Service accounts Incident Handling
RCCE students will learn identity governance, authentication protocols, authorization models, privilege escalation prevention, and access lifecycle management. RCCE students will learn to design and enforce identity controls that prevent unauthorized access, stop account takeover attacks, eliminate privilege abuse, and implement zero-trust identity verification across enterprise environments. This incident response course prepares students to act decisively during security incidents with structured workflows and clear decision frameworks. At an expert level, 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.
