Course description
Cybersecurity
The answer to the question: "Who in our organization is in charge of cyber security?" is simple: Everyone. Every employee in the organization is a line of defense against cyber attacks. But proper defense only comes with proper training.
Cyber security basics introduces learners to foundational concepts such as internal and external threats to systems and data, and what to do when a breach happens. Learners will uncover specific ways data and systems can be breached, and will learn essential practices for passwords, email usage and technology to protect digital information and physical access. Animation, video and interactivity work together to create an immersive experience that makes the case for cyber protection.
Employees go home when their workday is done. But hackers never sleep. Arm your workers with the strongest defense against cyber criminals: effective training.
