• Security Architecture Planning and Design
• This course introduces the fundamental security planning, design, and systems thinking concepts that are used throughout security architecture. As networks and applications grow more complex, the need to identify potential sources of weakness that are a product of that complexity becomes crucial. Students who complete this course will be equipped with the skills to identify and evaluate risks in systems, assess whether or not risks are acceptable, and work alongside stakeholders to prioritize remediation efforts.

A fine balance is required while designing a strong IAM model. We will be covering some of those concepts and methodologies in this course.
