What you'll learn

  • Identify tangible and intangible assets, build and maintain an asset inventory, and value assets using lenses suited to the harm being assessed
  • Design and apply classification schemes based on harm, including government and commercial schemes, and use markings and labels consistently
  • Distinguish data owners, system owners, custodians, users, controllers, processors and data subjects, and assign responsibilities accordingly
  • Establish handling requirements for storage, transmission, printing, media, travel and external sharing at each classification level
  • Provision assets securely with registration, hardened baselines and role-based access, and manage licences, SBOMs and end of support
  • Manage data across its life cycle, including minimization at collection, location decisions, purpose limitation, maintenance and archiving
  • Protect data at rest, in transit and in use, and choose among encryption, hashing, tokenization, masking, pseudonymization and anonymization
  • Explain data remanence and select clear, purge or destroy methods by media type and sensitivity, with verification and certificates
  • Build retention schedules that balance legal minimums and privacy maximums, apply legal holds and carry out records disposition
  • Apply privacy principles, privacy by design, privacy impact assessments and de-identification to the protection of personal information
  • Scope and tailor control baselines, select standards, and use DRM, DLP and CASB to protect data and demonstrate compliance
  • Design an integrated asset classification and handling program for a mid-sized organization with measurable outcomes
