摘要
This chapter teaches cybersecurity concepts to secure computer networks and data. Initial principles include confidentiality and integrity, then the defense-in-depth approach. Students learn about risk management—identifying, assessing, and managing risks—and security framework rules and governance. With use-case examples, firewalls, VPNs, IPSs, and encryption protocols are explained. Practical examples include endpoint protection, patch management, and mobile device security. Security operations centers (SOCs) and incident response plans teach students how firms identify, respond to, and recover from incidents. This chapter teaches readers how to apply cybersecurity measures and develop resilient digital environments using theory and practice.
