In an increasingly technology-driven world, cybersecurity stands as the cornerstone of digital resilience. In this programme, we will explore the full spectrum of cyber resilience, from prevention to response, while gaining both immediate, hands-on skills and foresight for the future of cybersecurity. This programme brings together academic researchers and industrial experts, and thus provides a blend of lectures and use cases and practical testimonials.

Formation complète: 1650 euro
Prochaine session: 260 euro
This programme is tailored to professionals looking to deepen their (technical) knowledge in various aspects of cyber resilience/a broad range of cybersecurity aspects.
This overview course is structured into eight sessions. We start with an overview of methodologies and technologies, beginning with a holistic view of cybersecurity in a digital ecosystem (session 1). Cybersecurity plays a critical role in ensuring data privacy, which involves complying with privacy laws and regulations like GDPR (session 2). The programme then progresses to hands-on workshops: one focused on network security (session 3) and another on the protection of the growing category of embedded ‘IoT’ devices (session 4). As standards and certifications also play an increasing role in implementing cybersecurity measures, this is the focus of the next session (session 5). We learn how (not) to respond, when a cyberattack occurs, and hear the lessons learned from a 'victim' (session 7). Finally, we look ahead to what the future holds, especially in the context of cybersecurity in the era of quantum computing (session 8).
