Freevacy reveals its latest BCS professional certification to help industry practitioners protect their organisations’ information assets in the modern world.
—
London, UK - Freevacy, one of the UK’s leading independent AI and GDPR training providers, has recently launched a new BCS Practitioner Certificate in Information Risk Management to help businesses achieve better information asset protection. In the modern business environment, information is essential for the smooth functioning of operations. Information may include customer, service user and employee details - as well as non-personal information about methods, plans, management systems, finances, procurement, research areas, intellectual property and commercial activities relevant to the organisation's interests or statutory function.
Understanding how to secure and protect this information is critical, which is where Freevacy’s new BCS professional certification comes into play.
A Course Built Around Safeguarding Critical Information Assets
The BCS Practitioner Certificate in Information Risk Management (PCIRM) course provides users with a comprehensive understanding of the best practices, principles and techniques used to safeguard critical information assets from a wide range of threats and vulnerabilities.
The core focus is to learn the fundamentals of information security and countless international standards applied to information risk management. This includes ISO 27001, 27005 and 31000.
Attendees of this accredited BCS PCIRM course will develop all the practical skills required to carry out risk assessments, evaluate risks against an organisation’s risk appetite and develop risk treatment plans.
Preparation For The BCS Practitioner Exam & Much More
The latest version of the BCS syllabus (v7.1) will directly prepare delegates for the BCS Practitioner Exam. Attendees will also develop the following:
- An in-depth understanding of terminology, principles and techniques used to manage information risks effectively
- The necessary skills to conduct information security risk assessments, including business impact analysis, threat assessments and vulnerability assessments
- Detailed knowledge about how information classification schemes are used to categorise information based on its level of sensitivity and establish appropriate controls for each category
- An ability to assess the level of risk and implement a treatment plan containing controls and measures to reduce the likelihood or impact of the risk
- The practical skills and a recognised risk management qualification to make a vulnerable contribution to the protection of key information assets within an organisation
