Life Cycle Engineering Introduces Cybersecurity Risk Management Training
March 4, 2015
CHARLESTON, SC – Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) announced that it will offer cybersecurity risk management training through its education entity, the Life Cycle Institute. The new Cybersecurity Risk Management Framework Strategy for Defense Platform Systems course prepares command leadership to implement the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) cybersecurity Risk Management Framework (RMF) from a Platform Information Technology (PIT) perspective.
The one-day workshop is designed for individuals and teams responsible for the application of Risk Management Framework (NIST SP800-37) and cybersecurity of special purpose systems within the Department of Defense (DoD), including DoD Program Managers, Technical Managers, Technical Directors, Requirements Officers and IT Managers.
The workshop reviews the five functions of cybersecurity (identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover) that leadership must consider when making decisions about program resources and requirements. Leaders will learn how to apply the risk management framework – from identifying cyber threats and how they impact operation, to assigning control strategies and analyzing the cost and benefits of secure designs.
“We’re very pleased to announce this new course developed by LCE’s cybersecurity experts in partnership with the Life Cycle Institute’s high-impact learning professionals,” said Terry Simpson, LCE’s Chief Technology Officer. “We want to offer targeted, critical training for defense leaders challenged with protecting our national defense infrastructure from cyber threats.”
The workshop will be first offered on June 16, 2015 in Philadelphia, PA, June 18, 2015 in Washington, DC and June 23, 2015 in Charleston, SC. The registration fee is $500 per person and includes all course materials and lunch. To register, call 800-556-9589, email [email protected], or complete the online registration form.
