There is Still Time to Register for Session 2

Security incidents rarely occur at a convenient time and tend to proceed at a fast pace, so it is important for participants to understand the roles and responsibilities of being on an Incident Response team.

Delivered by the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office, in collaboration with the CCC Information Security Center, the intent of this Incident Response Tabletop exercise is to introduce participants to the flow of events and actions that typically occur during a security incident.

This exercise has been structured as two events: One is a ransomware attack and the other is a malicious network breach. The sessions will be presented on two different days, so that participants may plan on attending either session or both.

Each session will introduce the different types of attacks and the process of incident handling, including detection, containment, eradication, and recovery. We will spend the bulk of the session on an incident response exercise/case study, and leave time at the end of the session for Q&A.
