Risk Management and Security Testing

Basics of Security Testing

The Challenge

Achieving trustworthy security in complex, networked IT systems is anything but easy. Where perfect security cannot be achieved, careful systematic risk management should be the basis for all security-related measures. In the practice of IT systems, however, this is often not the case. This seminar aims to raise awareness of the urgency of risk management.

The Solution

The course shows how safety testing in particular can be optimised by integrating it into a consistent risk management. It imparts the necessary methodology and the associated knowledge to carry out risk-based safety testing independently.
