6 "We often hear about patching common application vulnerabilities, however human weaknesses are the vulnerabilities that are in need of urgent patching. Poor security practices and under investment in security training and awareness will continue to be at the root for almost all data breaches until we prioritise the human element of the cyber threat." Richard Beck Head of Cyber Security, QA

9 OUR CYBER DOMAINS EXPLAINED Cyber Certifications When assessing a security professional's capability and skills, prospective employers look at their certifications as a measure of achievement and commitment to self development. We provide best-of-breed security certification training, leading to internationallyrecognised qualifications, from entry level CompTIA Security+ to our Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) course. Cyber Awareness It s a simple fact that the majority of security compromises in organisations involve human error. So in today s always on workforce the need to inform, influence and educate employees has never been greater. Through education comes a reduction of risk, and that is where QA Cyber Awareness courses really deliver. Delivered by our highly skilled instructors, we understand the realities around cyber security and how to embed them into people and organisations. Including areas such as the modern threat landscape, insider risks, supply chain risks and Executive Mitigations, our Cyber Awareness courses ensure organisations can detect, deter and defend against cyber threats. HMG Information Assurance If your organisation is part of the public sector or the HMG supply chain, then you will be required to demonstrate a full understanding of security relating to information, security threats and appropriate mitigation methods. Our HMG information assurance (IA) training is for security professionals (in both public and private sectors) that need to develop thorough and practical knowledge of IA. Our courses are designed to provide processes, methodologies and disciplines that enable risk identification, analysis and mitigation at the highest possible standard. Reinforced using real world case studies and constantly updated to stay ahead of the rapidly changing landscape, you can rest assured that our HMG IA courses will deliver the skills you need. Cyber Compliance It doesn t matter how robust your technology is, every business faces an element of risk. A holistic approach to security risk ensures employees are well educated against cyber threats and security risks and helps to illustrate the responsibility for keeping an organisations data safe is business wide, not just IT. Our cyber compliance training ensures that employees are clear on their regulatory responsibilities and the current best practice and standards. Through in-depth practitioner training we focus on enhancing and embedding knowledge rather than just teaching tick-box compliance like many other training organisations. So reduce the risk in your business and utilise the best practice security training from QA.

10 Cyber Security Operations Our Security Operations Curriculum delivers security operations training through hands-on technical experience needed to respond to security incidents and vulnerabilities. These courses are designed to enable individuals and organisations to improve operational security, leverage the security operations centre (SOC) analyst and understand the specialist training techniques used in vulnerability management and security information event management (SIEM) platforms. Including specific courses on malware, reverse engineering, vulnerability management and encryption and delivered in a technology agnostic approach means we are able to offer training that is independent to vendor or cloud technology. Cyber Incident Response QA s Cyber Crisis Management and Incident Response training provides the vital skills for your business leaders and specialists to lead and manage the unique challenges brought about by a cyber crisis. By providing both public and closed cyber crisis management training we can provide the skills, tools and techniques to help manage and mitigate risks across the whole organisation. In addition, our unique Cyber Labs provide a safe place to simulate and role play resolution scenarios, meaning that we deliver both theory and practice ensuring maximum learning. Cyber Secure Developer The majority of successful cyber-attacks depend on exploiting a few wellknown common vulnerabilities in code and systems. With QA s Cyber Secure Developer curriculum you can learn how to design in, rather than bolt on security to your system development lifecycle. Suitable for software developers, business analysts and other professionals working across the technical development lifecycle these courses help organisations develop with security top of mind. Cyber Intelligence Open Source Cyber Intelligence (OSCI) is fast becoming an essential toolset of the cyber security analyst and digital investigator. With the modern cyber criminals ever increasing ability to utilise peoples digital footprints to compromise organisations, it is a vital component in cyber defence to fully understand the extent that our cyber-enabled world leaks data which could put you and your organisation at risk. This is the foundation of the cyber intelligence tradecraft. Our cyber intelligence courses provide the skills to become more effective by utilising a highly practical approach to learning, allowing delegates the time to explore and understand core subject areas deeply, including the Dark Web, Cyber Crime in Business, protecting your online footprint, along-side the core courses of Open Source Cyber Intelligence.

11 Digital Forensics It is a fundamental fact that today, nearly all businesses rely on web technologies to operate, and with that dependency comes the reality of an increased cyber threat. To combat that threat and/or to investigate incidents that have occurred in order to prevent future threats, the discipline of Digital Forensics is key. At QA we have developed a digital forensics track that takes delegates from forensic fundamentals, mobile forensics through to advanced topics. This learning track enables individuals and organisations to utilise investigative tools, gather digital evidence and report in a way that ensures clarity and actionable insight. Delivered on Windows and Linux labs, covering methods to identify, preserve, analyse and report on digital artefacts, mobile devices, e-discovery and recovery, these courses offer the opportunity to put digital forensics into action. Cyber Offensive Defence Designed to deliver advanced skills in ethical hacking, our range of penetration testing and hacking courses set a new standard in cyber security education. Our training utilises a hands on approach allowing you to experience the most common hacking tools which we use to demonstrate the true vulnerabilities that many technology vendors would rather you didn t see.
