CISM 2022: IT Service & Data Availability

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Ensuring IT service and data high availability can reduce downtime and increase business productivity. The configurations put in place to achieve high availability align with standard business continuity requirements. In this course, you will discover the importance of high availability as it relates to business objectives. Begin by exploring load balancing as a method of optimizing application performance and availability. Next, you will learn how to deploy a cloud-based application load balancing solution. Examine various backup types such as differential and incremental, in order to adhere to the Recovery Point Objective (RPO). Then configure backup for Windows Server and for Microsoft Azure resources and find out how redundant array of inexpensive disks (RAID) levels apply to data availability and resiliency to disk failures. Finally, configure software RAID on the Windows and Linux platforms and enable availability in the cloud by enabling storage account and virtual machine replication. This course can be used to prepare for the Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) exam.
