This course provides a basic framing of cybersecurity risk elements, including cyber threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences at the organizational level. This includes why cyber threat actors target organizations, technical and non-technical vulnerabilities that are exploited to create cyber incidents, and the kinds of organizational consequences that result when cyber incidents occurs. It looks at steps that organizations take to mitigate or manage the risk associated with these elements of cyber risk. Finally, it connects these risk elements and management techniques to policies, rules, regulations, and law - a set of questions often termed "governance, risk and compliance" or GRC in many agencies in the private and public sectors. Prerequisites: Graduate standing.
