Course Overview
Projects involving cybersecurity project management are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. The estimate for this area of project and portfolio delivery that nobody challenged is usually the one that fails. Participants test their assumptions about the project and portfolio delivery discipline against scenarios designed to break weak ones. Moving cybersecurity project management from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. The course gives participants a defensible structure for the practice within project and portfolio delivery and the judgement to adapt it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the project and portfolio delivery capability that were visible long before the incident. It is designed for mixed groups, so that cybersecurity project management is examined from more than one functional angle. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on the wider project and portfolio delivery agenda and revise it on evidence. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this strand of project and portfolio delivery sustainable.
