Do you enjoy the idea of designing and implementing policies and procedures that will protect an IT infrastructure of an organisation? Do you possess excellent analytical skills and in-depth knowledge of best practices to identify and resolve vulnerabilities to resolve these issues, allowing networks and data to remain secure? If so, this is a great place to start.

Our Become an Information Security Officer programme brings together a broad and in-depth understanding of IT using CompTIA A+ Core 1 & Core 2 and CompTIA Network+ alongside CompTIA Security+, which will help establish the core knowledge required for any cybersecurity role, providing a springboard to intermediate-level cybersecurity jobs.

Security+ incorporates best practices in hands-on troubleshooting, ensuring candidates have practical security problem-solving skills required to assess the security posture of an enterprise environment and recommend and implement appropriate security solutions. Monitor and secure hybrid environments, including cloud, mobile, and IoT. Operate with an awareness of applicable laws and policies, including principles of governance, risk, and compliance. Identify, analyse, and respond to security events and incidents.

Finally the BCS CISMP course where you will gain a clear understanding of IS management issues including risk management, security standards, legislation and business continuity.
