Information Security Risk Management (2 days)

Course Overview

Audience:

The course is designed for anyone who wants to learn about Identifying and analyzing information security risks, How risks can be evaluated, What treatments, controls and measures can be implemented in order to mitigate risks, Ongoing governance and risk monitoring processes.

The course is applicable to individuals from any size or type of organization who are currently involved in (or will be in the future) planning, implementing, maintaining, supervising or assessing information security, as part of an ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS or a standalone system.

With the increasing number of internal and external information security threats, organizations recognize the importance of adopting a formal risk management program. Without a mechanism to identify, analyze and manage information security risks, it’s difficult for organizations to prioritize their security remediation efforts and resource allocation and associated costs. This leaves organizations more susceptible to security breaches, which can lead to financial and reputational damage.

Building on the concepts and framework specified in ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27005:2018 provides guidelines for adopting an information security risk management approach that is appropriate to all organizations.

This course aims to provide you with clear and practical guidance on the framework and steps involved to identify, analyse and manage information security risks. It will help you to review your existing risk treatments and controls and ensure they are appropriate to manage and reduce the identified risks. This will give you the confidence to get the most effective allocation of resources in place to address information security issues for your organization.
