This course continues surveying common technological and organizational measures for cybersecurity, with a focus on detection and organizational relationships. Topics include auditing and log records; monitoring and testing for threat detection; vulnerability scans; and the security of external services (e.g., cloud providers) and supply chains. We do not focus on how to technically implement these measures. Students assess organizational impacts and explore how best practices and standards can help manage such measures. Pre- or Co-req: CPRM 830.
