NEW FREE COURSE: How to Break Into GRC | Mindset | Methods | Skills

Hey there,

What's standing in your way of breaking into cybersecurity Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) from the outside? Or maybe you're already in the field. What barriers are preventing you and your team from elevating its impact?

There’s a new free course in Simply Cyber Academy focused on punching through those barriers. 🥊

Here’s the trailer:

And here’s what one cyber leader and hiring manager has to say about it:

World-class GRC effectively balances protecting and enabling the business. It helps organizations become cyber threat aware, and cultivates a cyber resilience culture that transforms people from sheep to sheepdogs—from passive victims to active defenders. 🐑➡️🐕

The Blue and Red teams deservedly get the spotlight for their roles to fortify defenses of critical data and IT infrastructure that can be exploited by threat actors. But we also need GRC to help answer questions about the effectiveness of security operations activities. And those questions can come from the board, customers, and a long list of different internal and external stakeholders. 🗣️

GRC is also awesome and underrated for seven other reasons that I enumerate in this Simply Cyber Academy course, featuring cybersecurity expert and educator Dr. Gerald Auger. This 4.5 CEU self-paced program will help unlock your potential to make an impact with GRC activities, while providing the practical skills needed to advance your cybersecurity career. 🔑

After checking out the trailer, you can find the detailed lesson plan and enrollment link here: https://academy.simplycyber.io/l/pdp/break-into-grc

This course will prepare you for roles like GRC Analyst, Compliance Specialist, and Security Risk Manager.

#TeamSC let's go!
