SysML for Cybersecurity Resiliency Training by Tonex
SysML for Cybersecurity Resiliency course provides an in-depth understanding of how to utilize SysML (Systems Modeling Language) in the context of cybersecurity to enhance organizational resiliency against cyber threats. Participants will learn how to model and analyze complex cybersecurity systems, identify potential vulnerabilities, and design effective countermeasures. The course emphasizes practical applications and hands-on exercises to reinforce key concepts.
SysML (Systems Modeling Language) can be utilized in the field of cybersecurity to model and analyze complex systems, including cybersecurity systems and processes. SysML is an extension of UML (Unified Modeling Language) that allows for the specification, visualization, analysis, design, and documentation of systems.
Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of SysML for Cybersecurity Resiliency, participnts will:
- Understand the fundamentals of SysML and its application in cybersecurity for system modeling and analysis.
- Identify and model cybersecurity risks and threats using SysML diagrams and notations.
- Develop comprehensive security architecture models using SysML to ensure cyber resilience.
- Utilize SysML to design and validate security controls, incident response procedures, and access management mechanisms.
- Analyze the impact of security incidents and develop strategies to enhance system recovery and continuity.
- Apply SysML-based verification and validation techniques to assess the effectiveness of cybersecurity measures.
- Create cybersecurity requirements and other artifacts using SysML diagrams.
Audience:
This course is designed for cybersecurity professionals, systems engineers, software developers, IT managers, and anyone involved in designing, implementing, or evaluating cybersecurity measures. Prior knowledge of basic cybersecurity concepts and familiarity with systems modeling will be beneficial, but not mandatory.
