Course Overview

The Titus for Data Classification course by Open Source is designed to equip cybersecurity professionals with advanced skills in identifying, labeling, and protecting sensitive data across hybrid environments. Although marketed under Open Source, the platform is officially known as Fortra’s Data Classification Suite (DCS), formerly Titus, and serves as a cornerstone for organizations managing compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, ITAR, and CMMC. This training targets roles such as Data Classification Engineers, Information Security Analysts, and Compliance Officers, particularly those working in regulated sectors like finance, healthcare, and government. With over 70% of Fortune 500 companies adopting automated data classification tools, demand for certified professionals who can implement solutions like DCS continues to grow.

Participants engage with core components including DCS for Windows, DCS Policy Manager (SaaS or on-premises), DCS for Data at Rest, DCS One (web add-in), and integration platforms such as Forcepoint DLP and Seclore DRM. The hands-on lab environment simulates enterprise deployments using real-world configurations in Microsoft 365, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, and cloud storage systems. Students build and enforce classification taxonomies, configure persistent metadata tagging, and implement automatic scanning of unstructured data at rest. A key project involves designing an end-to-end data protection workflow where users classify emails and documents via Outlook and Office applications, with metadata automatically consumed by downstream security controls to enhance DLP accuracy and drive secure collaboration.

This course prepares learners for the Data Classification (formerly Titus) Foundation & Admin Certification, which is increasingly recognized by global enterprises and government agencies requiring strict data handling protocols. Certified professionals report salary increases of up to 25%, with mid-level engineers earning between $95,000 and $130,000 annually depending on sector and region. Koenig Solutions enhances learning outcomes through Guaranteed-to-Run batches and access to official courseware, ensuring students train on the latest DCS updates. Upon completion, graduates are positioned to lead data governance initiatives, reduce compliance risks, and advance into senior roles such as Data Protection Officer or Security Architect.
