Course Overview

Organizations today face risks that cross digital and physical boundaries—from cyberattacks targeting access control systems to physical breaches that compromise IT infrastructure. Traditional siloed approaches to security are no longer sufficient. Integration of cybersecurity and physical security ensures comprehensive protection of assets, people, and information.

This course explores integrated risk frameworks, cyber-physical vulnerabilities, governance, digital monitoring tools, incident response, and global best practices. Participants will gain both technical and strategic skills to design holistic security strategies that address converging threats.

At EuroQuest International Training, the course uses real-world case studies, simulations, and workshops to ensure participants can develop and implement integrated security frameworks effectively.
