Course Description

Information security incidents are no longer exceptional events. In the 2024 to 2025 threat landscape, organizations face ransomware, data leakage, supply chain compromise, and regulatory scrutiny as a continuous operational reality. Many organizations formally adopt ISO 27035, yet struggle to make incident management work when time, information, and coordination are limited.

This course is built for that reality. Participants do not simply review the ISO 27035 framework. They actively design an incident management capability that can be executed, governed, and defended. The training follows the complete incident lifecycle, from preparation and readiness through detection, response, recovery, and post incident improvement.

Throughout the course, participants work on a structured case scenario reflecting real organizational complexity. They define roles, decision thresholds, communication strategies, and response actions. Emphasis is placed on leadership during incidents, cross functional coordination, and alignment with business continuity, legal obligations, and ISO 27001 control expectations.

Abilene Academy’s approach reflects Swiss governance principles: clarity of responsibility, disciplined processes, and evidence based decisions. Instructors draw on practitioner experience managing incidents in regulated environments, ensuring that guidance is practical, realistic, and auditable.

By the end of the training, participants leave with a complete and defensible incident management structure that can be implemented immediately within their organization or assessed as part of an ISMS maturity program.

  • This course aims to develop advanced competence in designing, implementing, managing, and improving an Information Security Incident Management process based on ISO 27035:2023.

    Participants gain the ability to support organizations in responding effectively to information security incidents while ensuring alignment with ISO 27001 and regulatory expectations.

Professional Testimonials

Had a great experience learning with Abilene Academy, it has been an extremely long time since I have attended an external formal training outside of the business organization I work in. I found this training to be truly beneficial for me to attend. the overall delivery of the course by Henri was superb, he kept us well engage despite having half of the room online and half face to face. The communication from the advisors from the initial enquiry regrading the course up until now has also been great! definitely recommending to my colleagues. Thank you!
