Cyber, Cloud and Information Security Bootcamp

You’ll learn the fundamentals of information and communication technology (ICT). This includes modern end devices, their structure and functionality, operating systems, application software, folder and file structures, as well as the basics of networks and cloud environments.ICT Fundamentals – Hardware, Operating Systems, and Networks

You’ll learn how to use digital communication and collaboration tools securely and in compliance with data protection requirements. Topics include email communication, calendar management, browser functionality, search strategies, cookies, data protection principles, and audience-focused digital communication.

You’ll identify common threats such as malware, phishing, and unauthorized access, and apply basic security measures like strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, updates, and antivirus solutions. You’ll also learn how to securely use cloud, email, and web services.

You’ll understand network topologies such as star, bus, ring, and mesh, as well as key network components like routers, switches, and access points. Using tools like ping, traceroute, and ipconfig/ifconfig, you’ll identify common issues and interpret routing and name resolution problems.

You’ll analyze firewall rules, interpret log entries, and map encryption technologies such as TLS, VPNs, and disk encryption to real-world use cases.

You’ll differentiate between on-premise and cloud-based data storage, understand cloud deployment models and role-based access concepts, and assess risks in infrastructure and AI environments. You’ll apply best practices for identity and access management as well as security measures for AI systems.

You’ll learn the phases of incident response – detection, analysis, containment, eradication, and recovery. You’ll interpret logs, SIEM data, and alerts, and apply vulnerability management to real-world scenarios. Awareness measures are placed in the appropriate security context.

You’ll understand regulatory requirements, governance structures, and role models. You’ll conduct risk assessments, evaluate data protection and compliance requirements, and apply regulations such as GDPR, NIS2, IT Security Act 2.0, and the EU AI Act in practice.

You’ll create Business Impact Analyses (BIAs), derive RTO and RPO values, and develop emergency and recovery plans. You’ll understand emergency response organizations (BAO), conduct BCM tests, and document audit-relevant evidence.

You’ll learn ISO 27001/27002 and BSI IT-Grundschutz, define protection requirements, model organizational structures, create control catalogs and policies, and implement Annex A requirements as well as the Statement of Applicability (SoA).

In the capstone project, you’ll apply everything you’ve learned: defining scope, identifying stakeholders, conducting full risk analyses and BIAs, documenting Annex A controls, and creating ISMS policies. You’ll consolidate all results into a complete, audit-ready ISMS documentation set.
