Trusted environment, system resilience, monitoring and logging – video course

Get familiar with three more cybersecurity control groups: Trusted environment, system resilience, monitoring and logging. First, you will learn how trusted environment controls provide a base for all cybersecurity operations. Then, you will understand why system resilience controls become essential in the case of a successful cyberattack. Finally, you will also learn how monitoring and logging help detect vulnerabilities.

After you understand cryptography and its fundamental concepts, you can now dive into additional cybersecurity control groups. In this video, we will focus on three additional in vehicle cybersecurity control groups and pertaining controls: Trusted environment, system resilience, monitoring and logging.

We will begin the video course by explaining trusted environment and why it is crucial for further cybersecurity operations. Specifically, we will provide a visual overview and thorough explanation on how secure boot can help ensure a trusted environment. Afterwards, we will explain its relationship to the concepts of cryptography and asymmetric private and public key settings previously defined in past video courses. Moreover, you will understand how hardware trust anchors work and get an overview on different standardized feature sets for hardware trust anchors, including hardware security modules, trusted platform modules and secure hardware extensions.

Then, you will grasp the importance of having system resilience controls in place, in case of a successful cyberattack. In a side by side overview, you will learn about fail safe and fail operational systems. Additionally, you will also get a comprehensive explanation on redundant components.

At last, you will learn about monitoring and logging as measures to detect cybersecurity events and roll our preventive measures when new vulnerabilities are detected. Intrusion detection systems are introduced in this section.
