Digital Transformation in Cybersecurity & Information Security (ISO 27001) Training Course in Dodoma, Tanzania
Classroom training in Dodoma · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 3,600
As banks, ministries, hospitals and retailers move services to cloud platforms, mobile apps and online payments, the number of ways in has multiplied. Ransomware, phishing and insider misuse hit organisations of every size, and customers, regulators and auditors increasingly ask for proof of control. Ten days give security and technology teams the technical and management skills to protect digital operations and to demonstrate it through ISO 27001.
The first week covers threat landscape, network and endpoint security, identity and access management, encryption, secure configuration, vulnerability scanning and logging. You then design the management system itself: scoping, asset inventories, risk assessment and treatment under ISO 27005, the Statement of Applicability, Annex A controls, policies and supplier security. The second week moves into cloud security, application and API protection, data privacy, security monitoring with a SIEM, incident response, digital forensics basics, business continuity, internal audit and certification preparation, with an integrated lab project. The programme suits information security officers, IT managers, network and systems administrators, risk and compliance staff, internal auditors and digital transformation leads in government, finance, telecoms and enterprise. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house, with a CPD-accredited certificate. You leave able to lead a security programme to audit readiness.

About this course
Digital transformation brings speed and reach, but it also moves valuable data and critical processes outside the traditional office network. Organisations now run on cloud services, remote access, third-party platforms and connected devices, and each new link can become a path for attackers. Security that depends on a firewall and an annual policy review no longer matches this reality. Boards and regulators expect risk-based, documented and tested protection, and many clients require ISO 27001 certification before they will share data or award contracts.
The Digital Transformation in Cybersecurity & Information Security (ISO 27001) Training Course combines the technical and governance sides of the discipline over two weeks. The first week establishes security foundations: threats and attack methods, secure network design, identity and access, cryptography, hardening and vulnerability management, followed by the structure of ISO 27001, risk assessment and the controls in Annex A. The second week applies these foundations to modern environments, covering cloud and application security, monitoring and detection, incident response, forensics, resilience, supplier assurance, privacy and audit.
Hands-on laboratories take place throughout, including scanning, log analysis, phishing simulations and tabletop incident exercises. In the final days, groups bring everything together in a project that produces a risk register, a Statement of Applicability, key policies and an audit readiness plan.
Training Objectives
By the close of the ten days, participants will be able to:
- Describe current cyber threats, attack techniques and the weaknesses they exploit.
- Configure and review network, endpoint and identity controls, including multi-factor authentication.
- Define the scope and context of an ISO 27001 information security management system.
- Carry out an information asset and risk assessment and select treatments.
- Produce a Statement of Applicability and map Annex A controls to evidence.
- Apply secure practices for cloud services, applications, APIs and mobile devices.
- Detect, triage and respond to security incidents using a documented process.
- Conduct internal audits and prepare the organisation for a certification audit.
