Course Outline:

Explores what the Practitioner needs to know about the relationship between digital transformation and cybersecurity
Explain how to determine the impact of cybersecurity on DX.
Explain the relationships between culture and digital transformation from the perspective of a practitioner.
Explain the delivery of value to stakeholders in a DX & cybersecurity environment.
Illustrate the interdependent relationship between cybersecurity and DX.

The Practitioner needs to understand what threat actors do and their capabilities.
Compare the evolving attack type impact to the threat environment.
Apply knowledge about the threat landscape to maintain a readiness to respond.
Develop a risk profile based on business impact analysis
Establish the relationship between awareness and training in the continual improvement of cybersecurity posture.
Develop and treat training & awareness as a critical aspect of deterrence

This chapter provides a sample set of controls based on an informative reference.
Understand the purpose goals & objectives for each control.
Characterize & explain the informative reference controls
Discover how to apply the controls in an organizational context.

Adopt is a decision about governance; adapt is the set of management decisions that result from the decision to adopt.
Distinguish Adopt, Adapt, Management & Governance.
Develop an approach to adoption & adaptation.
Distinguish & demonstrate the impact of organizational culture on developing cybersecurity as a capability.
