I. Course Description:

  • Security Management Practices

    NEbraskaCERT hosts a series of focused meetings covering the significant Computer Security topics. These provide a comprehensive baseline of what a well rounded Computer Security Professional should know. It is our intention to cover the knowledge areas in sufficient detail that an otherwise qualified individual would be better prepared to pass several of the Computer Security Professional Exams including: Security+, ISC2's SSCP exam and ISC2's CISSP exam. This information may also be useful for other Computer Security exams such as the TruSecure certification.
