Opleiding: IBM PowerSC Workshop [TDS_AN80G]

OVERVIEW

This hands-on course is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of IBM PowerSC, including its features, benefits, and how to install, configure, and manage it.

We will cover the four main pillars of PowerSC: Security, Compliance, threat protection, and Multifactor Authentication (MFA).

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), allow listing, block listing, endpoint detection and response (EDR) and anti-malware capabilities will also be covered.
