Overview What You Will Learn Curriculum Instructor

Course Overview

While some companies conduct outsourcing cybersecurity operations processes smoothly and receive cybersecurity services from MSSPs aligning with their business demands, some others experience cybersecurity breaches, cancelled contracts and unhappy endings.

Any disruptions in your managed security services will cause cyber incidents, reputational and financial losses, as well as deprivation of the desired level of cyber security support in your organization.

When you decide to outsource cybersecurity operations management, you will need comprehensive business needs analysis, proposal request planning, SLA preparation and effective MSSP management.

This course provides you with a holistic context by examining all outsourcing processes in-depth and shares best practices with you considering academic and business experiences. It will guide you through entire outsourcing cybersecurity operations projects and strengthen your relationship with your MSSP.
