CompTIA Security+, Part 9 of 9: Social Engineering and Wrap up

Course description

This course wraps up the series with planning for disaster recovery as well as redundancy, backups and RAID,
Next, it tackles the human element with social engineering, insider threats, phishing and user education.
Finally, it discusses policies and procedures, vendor relationships, incident response and IT security frameworks for the SY0-501 Exam.

Each LearnNowOnline training course is made up of Modules (typically an hour in length). Within each module there are Topics (typically 15-30 minutes each) and Subtopics (typically 2-5 minutes each). There is a Post Exam for each Module that must be passed with a score of 70% or higher to successfully and fully complete the course.

Prerequisites

• Basic familiarity with computer networks, administration, and security is helpful (But, all required information will be covered during the course)
• Completion of the CompTIA A+ and Network+ certifications (Helpful, but not required)
