What is the Operationally-Sound Endpoint Detection course about?

Public-sector initiatives often face scrutiny due to delayed incident response, fragmented tooling, and misaligned stakeholder expectations. Teams invest in technology without embedding detection into operational workflows, leading to audit findings, rework, and leadership hesitation. The gap isn't technical, it's strategic and procedural.
