CYBER SECURITY TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONAL CSTP COURSE

01

About the curriculum

The CSTP program is designed to train cyber security experts who can advise, guide and make decisions in data protection, technological-tactical (without administrative-administrative) tasks. The program will provide students with a deep understanding of strategies, tactics, techniques, and best practices in these fields, including knowledge of attack and intelligence.

In addition to professional knowledge, the program prepares its participants for the internationally sought-after certification exams: SSCP certification and the main part of the CISSP certification.

The course deals with the strategic levels and combines the knowledge and disciplines required for an expert and a cyber architect.

The track will give the graduate the ability to deal with the role of cyber security architect, provide him with the ability to plan a cyber security system, choose the right components, implement them with the chosen technique, track and monitor events, analyze and understand events, respond immediately and appropriate to events and initiate "order" in the organization’s cyber security activities.

The essence of the profession:

Cyber Security Technologies Solution Planning in the organization, combining security technologies and methods.

Adapting and integrating protection products into the computer infrastructure, including storage arrays and backup methods.

Accompanying the handling of security events in the technological aspect.

All of this, while recognizing and understanding the activity, needs and organizational goals.

How does the program stand out?

The main security burden is not assigned to implementors, but rather to the security array designer, an architect or CISO, who also directs implementor and manages the "Battle of Cyber Security". Every organization needs its backbone, and small organizations that can't afford this kind of specialist get this service through consulting companies.

The increasing demand for educated and knowledgeable architects-consultants necessitates a broad and very deep background, as part of an organized methodology to take over the vast amount of information, and this is the essence of the CSTP architecture chapter of the CISO program.

In 2004, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) issued Directive No. 8570.1 on: “Information Security Training, Certification and Personnel Management”.

The provision requires that every technical or administrative professional in information security is trained and certified in accordance with a clear standard, to enable effective protection of information, information systems and information infrastructure of DoD and to define groups of subjects and levels of proficiency. [Instruction 8570.1].

The role which involves the design of an information security architecture is often referred to as "cyber security architect" and the role is often mistaken for "information security consultant".

The architect is the "thinker" who designs technical defenses on aspects of technology and technique, from an in-depth knowledge of hacker capabilities and potential vulnerabilities. The cyber headquarters regards this profession as the most essential component of the cyber-unit profession.
