Course description
Cyber Security
It seems that everything relies on technology these days, after all, most of us use computers, tablets, or mobile phones for e-mails, entertainment, online banking, and shopping. Of course, this means that much of our personal information is stored either on our own computers, or on someone else’s system. Practically all businesses and organisations worldwide use computers and the internet to store, process, and communicate information – much of it sensitive and confidential.
Gaining illegal access to both personal and organisational information can be very lucrative for cyber criminals; it can also be very satisfying for those seeking some form of revenge, or wishing to enjoy the kudos of breaking into apparently secure systems.
This course will explain how you can remain safe and compliant by understanding online security. You will be able to describe how to protect yourself, and the company in which you work, to stay safe from digital threats.
