Week 1: Foundations of Cybersecurity
Week 2: Tools and Systems for Security
Week 3: Threat Detection and Analysis
Week 4: Cryptography and Identity Management
Week 5: Vulnerability Management
Week 6: Career Preparation and Final Project
Module 1: Computer/Network Technology/Security Foundations
Cybersecurity is built on a foundation of core technical skills, and Module 1 of this curriculum establishes those essentials. We begin with understanding computer components and move to operating systems and virtualization, forming the groundwork for managing IT environments. Networking fundamentals and network devices like firewalls, are introduced to build confidence in designing and securing networks.
This foundation is critical to success in subsequent modules.
- Week 1:
Focus: Explore computer hardware and electronic components such as motherboards, CPUs, memory, and virtualization. Learn the basics of operating systems and servers. - Week 2:
Focus: Master networking fundamentals, including the OSI model, networking technologies, and devices like firewalls. - Week 3:
Focus: Understand internet architecture (DNS, HTTP, TCP/IP) and web server concepts. Gain foundational database knowledge, including structure, SELECT statements, and security. - Week 4:
Focus: Learn encryption basics, including public/private keys and hashing. Grasp core security principles, such as the CIA triad and physical/logical/management security.
Module 2: Information Systems Security Officer (ISSO) Basics
This module continues with security technology fundamentals but uses that platform to move the student into the job of helping secure information systems by utilizing information assurance principles for government systems. We will familiarize ourselves with the Federal Information Security Management Act and the National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance on how information systems are to be secured in federal governments space. Some of the skills taught in this module:
- Week 1:
Focus: Review cybersecurity terminology and revisit Internet/network security concepts to understand their application in ISSO roles. Learn to confidently interpret network diagrams. - Week 2:
Focus: Study access control protection (passwords, tokens, MFA) and advanced cryptography (steganography, data infiltration/exfiltration). Dive into effective incident response strategies. - Week 3:
Focus: Learn to interpret security policies and contingency planning, including Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and recovery technologies like backups. - Week 4:
Focus: Get hands-on with NIST SP 800-53 controls. Practice writing Systems Security Plans (SSPs) for Major Applications (MA) and General Support Systems (GSS).
The step-by-step, scenario-driven teaching approach we use will enable you to grasp the information presented, even if some of the topics are new to you. You will learn real-world cyber security fundamentals to serve as the foundation of your career skills.
Module 3: Security Controls Assessor (SCA) Basics and Job Hunting
This module takes the ISSO training, security controls assessor and all that you know so far and will use that knowledge to evaluate IT systems against the criteria found in the NIST SP 800-53A; this is the assessment companion to the NIST SP 800-53 used by ISSO’s. Evaluating the IT system is the job of the security control assessor. This module will leverage the previous module skills development in security plan writing and interpreting agency IT policies. However, this module will be heavy on “relearning” on how to read and write for assessment purposes.
- Week 1:
Focus: Understand the role of SCAs and how to evaluate IT systems using NIST SP 800-53A. Learn how to assess system controls based on ISSO-prepared plans. - Week 2:
Focus: Hone skills in reading and interpreting guidance, requesting artifacts, and synthesizing findings into Security Assessment Reports (SARs) and Accreditation Letters. - Week 3:
Focus: Build effective communication and interviewing skills. Learn to collaborate with SMEs, eliminate unnecessary noise, and focus on pertinent details during evaluations. - Week 4:
Focus: Transition into job preparation. Learn to interpret job boards, tailor resumes, and rebrand yourself for roles in IT security.
You will then learn the most effective methods of synthesizing the information and making it “make sense” to the reader, quickly and with less effort.
The second part of this module will be used to see how what you learned ties directly into getting a job. We will learn to read job boards and position descriptions to help determine if you are a good fit for a specific job. We will “rebrand” each student; based on their comfort levels and skillsets, into new security professionals.
