Part 2: Security Resilience: Getting the Basics Down

In this part, you will learn the fundamental policies and controls that need to be in place to secure your business. You will learn that multi-factor authentication can prevent 99% of account attacks. In addition, you’ll learn the importance of security policies, due diligence, and security awareness, from the latest endpoint protection systems through to data protection. Through it all, you’ll learn that security and risk management is the process of balancing cyber risks, the controls used to thwart attacks, and the budget. Your company can’t be 100% secure nor can there ever be 0% risk. Security is about finding a balance of what is most important, what can wait, and what risks are acceptable to your business.
