Course Overview

Security incident response is a crucial component of GDPR compliance, ensuring that organizations can effectively detect, respond to, and mitigate data breaches. With the increasing frequency of cyber threats targeting personal data, businesses must establish a robust incident response framework to meet regulatory requirements and protect sensitive information. This course provides a comprehensive guide to building a security incident response system tailored for GDPR compliance, covering essential cybersecurity strategies, SOC implementation, and real-world threat scenarios.

This course begins with an introduction to incident response, explaining its necessity, processes, and tools, including SIEM and automation. It then explores the creation and management of a Security Operations Center (SOC) and the integration of Network Operations Centers (NOCs). The GDPR section focuses on incident response planning, data breach management, and regulatory requirements. Learners will also study real-world attack methodologies, banking sector challenges, financial malware threats, and fraud risk management. Hands-on hacking attempt demonstrations provide practical insights into cyber threats and security countermeasures.

By the end of this course, learners will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to build an effective security incident response system, ensuring GDPR compliance and enhancing organizational cybersecurity resilience.
