CIS Elective #2 - Applying the Security Assurance Manager Software

 

"The Next Generation" of technically managing IT security functions

 

Intrusions across the world continue to increase, threatening sensitive systems & critical intellectual property. Learn HOW to secure data using the latest IT Security Management techniques aided by advanced Security Software technology: 

SECURING YOUR ENTERPRISE
"Database Template Security Planning & Auditing" Introducing:
The SECURITY AUDIT MANAGER: SAM™

 

Overview:

This course teaches the electronic version of "How To" prepare security plans and conduct security audits to PROTECT from intrusions by assuring that computers meet high standards of Security Rules and Policies. This process applies the latest technologies to satisfy security requirements and make systems SECURE aided by the new security enterprise management software SAM™ : THE Total Security Management Software Solution.


This Security Management solution provides on-line web-based techniques and relational database interfaces to conduct Security Planning, Risk Assessments, Auditing, Scanning for Vulnerabilities, Securing from Exploits and Management Metrics on the Security Status of specific systems. The techniques are effective in Securing the Enterprise.

 

Course Benefits:

This new Security Audit Management process accelerates detailed security planning and auditing to speed security scanning and vendor patching. The advanced electronic advantage keeps the Security Status current to assure cost effective SECURE systems.

 

This NEW security technology software strengthens security auditing and planning functions to provide Independent Verification & Validation of IT Security to make sure systems ARE secure. Paramount is the cost-effectiveness of this approach. Database applications are rapidly emerging and this software "Captures the Leading Edge" applied to IT SECURITY. This Technical Security Management software approach overcomes the traditional expenditures where, on the average, Security Administrator costs are spent for:

A security specialist
Training on how to use scanning software and
Cost of the Scanning software, all of which is repeated every year with the only result being: a list of Known Security Vulnerabilities.

 

For those $s there is still a GAP. No electronic retrievable record is kept, no vulnerabilities are corrected and recorded and there is NO way to determine the status of line system security. This new security enterprise approach treats this GAP and produces records, security status and links to other security documents and systems.

 

NDI principals, who are authorities in Relational Database Technologies, System Security Planning and Security Enterprise Management functions teach this process. The faculty consists of those who wrote the application and applied it to major government space centers. The Beta was successfully tested in February 2000.

This course was developed by using practical experiences from government and the employment of industry database and programming techniques. Featured technologists from SSI staff and faculty have impressive credentials.

 

This is a no nonsense course that focuses on getting the security job done. Theory, long sentences and copied boilerplate pages from other documents are avoided. The fundamental purpose and focus is to install security applied to SPECIFIC Systems.

 

Topics Discussed:

•  Fundamental Security Planning
Threat and Risk Assessment
Auditing Principles
New Security Tools
Demonstration on-line -The Database Template Planning process

These techniques are unique cost-effective methodologies designed to capture security data and maintain a retrievable and modifiable RECORD. The application shown is in effect at a major government space center. This unique process makes good business sense and manages for the FIRST time all the security management & technical functions needed to MAKE & KEEP Systems SECURE.

 

The software package is a powerful turnkey Management and Technical application that synthesizes Security Management Functions to provide a RECORD of Security Status. A unique feature is the on-line updating of new vulnerabilities and resulting changed security status of desktops, servers and the network. A built-in feature provides AUTOMATIC policy compliance checks that provide a written report On Call.

 

Database technology is the latest of the integration and virtual assistance software applied across the industry for configuration management and system maintenance protocols.
