ABOUT THE COURSE

We live in an era of cyber in-security and attacks are common, be it malware, viruses or hacking. But the reality is most events happen because of the action employees take.

Most people have yet to consider their digital safety (especially at work) in the same way that they consider their personal safety. People wouldn’t leave their wallets or personal belongings lying around in a public space, but have almost definitely clicked on a link that didn’t seem totally safe or downloaded something from an unknown source.

The good news is there are simple rules you employees can follow to avoid being an easy target. Cyber security is about getting the basics right and this course will show people how.

COURSE TOPICS

The course is divided into five accessible, interactive modules and includes an assessment at the end:

• "Start with the why" - This engaging trailer will drive your engagement and interest in the subject.
