Course Overview

As organizations digitize operations, physical and cyber domains are increasingly interconnected. A breach in one area often exposes vulnerabilities in the other—for example, a cyberattack disabling access controls, or physical intrusions leading to data theft. Traditional siloed approaches are no longer sufficient.

This ten-day course from EuroQuest International Training explores how to integrate cybersecurity and physical security systems into enterprise governance, ensuring cohesive monitoring, incident response, and resilience. Participants will learn frameworks, compliance requirements, and foresight tools to build holistic security strategies that address hybrid threats in large and complex environments.

Course Benefits

• Design integrated security frameworks that unify cyber and physical domains

• Apply risk management strategies across interconnected security systems

• Use strategic foresight to anticipate hybrid threats

• Strengthen governance, compliance, and accountability in security practices

• Enhance resilience through unified incident response and recovery protocols

Why Attend
