Certified in Cybersecurity (CC): Physical Access Controls

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Many security practitioners learn about physical security by comparing it to protecting a medieval castle. Defense in Depth (DiD) relies on multiple layers of independent methods of security and must be used with either an outward-in or inward-out approach. Begin this course by exploring fundamental physical security concepts and mechanisms such as privileged access management (PAM) and segregation of duties (SoD). Then you will focus on badge systems, gate/facility entry, and environmental controls design. Next, you will examine biometric authentication, including crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED). Finally, you will learn about various monitoring systems like syslog, NetFlow, security information and event management (SIEM), and security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR). This course prepares learners for the (ISC)2 Certified in Cybersecurity exam.
