After attending this unclassified class, students will be able to oversee design and construction of a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) which meets official government requirements for a secure area where classified information is handled. The stringent physical security requirements; such as, access control systems, thickness of doors, the strength of concrete and the use of alarms, and acoustical controls which prevent eav...

Physical Security includes five components; detection, assessment, command and control (policy & procedures), response and engagement. Sadly, most of us in the security vertical focus on only one or two of these components and miss the others. These five elements must be intertwined and seamlessly integrated. If they all aren’t addressed, the “bad guy” wins. In this session we’ll outline what each component is, how...

Disaster Recovery refers to the process, policies and procedures related to ensuring the resilience of technology infrastructure, including speedy and effective recovery / restoration of technology after a disaster or disruption. This workshop focuses on creating a sustainable IT environment within the corporate framework. Most organizations cannot survive a catastrophic failure of their IT system – learn how to protect yours. Myths and...
