Incident Reporting and Response in Energy

In this micro-credential, learners develop the skills to respond to cybersecurity incidents in the energy sector by applying the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Incident Response Life Cycle. Learners examine the stages of incident preparedness, response, and recovery, conduct a root cause analysis using frameworks such as the Fishbone Diagram and the 5 Why’s method, and document their findings in a formal incident report. The course emphasizes the use of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to identify and prioritize control gaps and supports practical readiness in mitigating cyber threats.

Please note that this course is a part of the Cybersecurity for Energy Micro-credential Program and can also be taken as a standalone offering.

This course runs from April 20 to July 3, 2026. Registration is open until April 24, 2026.
