To round out your journey into advanced cybersecurity practice, in this course, you'll protect five key aspects of the business environment: data, access, software, networks, and systems. These all contribute to the third and final stage of the overall CFR-A program: Address.

This is the third and final course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you use the provided virtual machines, which include all of the necessary tools and system configurations for the activity environment. The course setup instructions provided in the first course go into more detail about the hardware and software requirements.

The last "A" in CFR-A is address. In other words, you've finished discovering information about attacks and now you'll defend against those attacks. The nature of that defense can change depending on whether it's done in direct response to an incident or is meant to be more preventative in nature. In any case, you are completing your CFR-A journey by ensuring the target systems are at least somewhat resilient to the exploits and post-exploit tasks you managed to conduct earlier. You won't address every problem, but you'll still be able to get to quite a few.
