"Vulnerability Management" training programme

"Vulnerability Management - Introduction to Processes and Standards "

The task of dealing with Vulnerabilities in Software, and sometimes even in Hardware, has gone from an ad hoc, emergency activity to a continuous, planned task that has become one of the building blocks of reliable, secure systems and networks. This webinar will give an overview of the existing standards and will cover some of the key elements, like CVE and CVSS, in depth, that will be referenced throughout the coming webinars on vulnerability management."

"Vulnerability Information - How to gather and distribute security advisories to your constituency"

"Before one can address with vulnerabilities, one needs to be aware of them: their existence, their consequences, and what to do about them. While CSIRTs and PSIRTs take care of the initial steps in researching and publishing information, the task of actually forwarding this information to the administrators responsible for vulnerable systems, is something that every organisation has to deal with themselves. This webinar will show how this task can be dealt with and what information should be included in a security advisory."

"Patch Management - How to roll out and track security fixes to your systems"

"'Patching' is the name given to the process of replacing vulnerable software with a corrected version. However, the sheer number of patches that has to be applied constantly has led to the requirement to automate and track the application of patches. This webinar will give an overview of the process of applying patches and what tools can be used to automate the task."
