SSCP Cert Prep: 7 Systems and Application Security

- [Mike] Hi, I'm Mike Chapple. And I'd like to welcome you to our SSCP Systems and Application Security course. The Systems Security Certified Practitioner credential is a popular entry-level certification for information security professionals. Earning the SSCP credential requires passing an exam covering seven different domains of information security. This course covers one of those domains, systems and application security.

This domain accounts for 15% of the questions on the test, and this course is part of an eight-course series designed to prepare you for the SSCP exam. In this course, we'll be focusing on identifying and analyzing malicious code and activity, implementing and operating endpoint device security controls, operating and configuring cloud security controls, securing big data systems, and operating and securing virtual environments.

The information you learn in this course will help you pass the SSCP exam and will also provide a critical foundation for your career in information security. In addition to the information I cover in this course, I encourage you to visit my website at certmike.com and join my free SSCP study group. I'll send you exam tips, practice test questions, and reminders to help keep you on track with your test preparation. All right, let's get rolling.
