Standards mapping Incident Handling
RCCE students will learn how to map organizational security controls to regulatory standards and compliance frameworks including NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, CIS Controls, PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, and GDPR. RCCE students will learn to create control crosswalks, identify overlapping requirements across multiple frameworks, perform gap analysis against target standards, build compliance matrices, and generate audit-ready documentation. The course covers evidence collection strategies, control effectiveness testing, continuous compliance monitoring, and how to present compliance posture to auditors and executive leadership. This incident response course prepares students to act decisively during security incidents with structured workflows and clear decision frameworks. Building on core knowledge, 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.
