Cyber attacks, hacktivists and organised crime may all sound rather ‘007-ish’, but as more and more of our everyday devices are now connected to the internet, so our digital footprint grows at pace, leaving us vulnerable to having our personal information used against us. Sadly, cyber crime such as social engineering campaigns and email phishing attacks have become commonplace in our age of connectivity, and it becomes our responsibility to protect ourselves and our businesses from complex cyber threats.

This Cyber User Awareness Training (Basic) course has been developed by cyber security specialists, Cyber Security Associates (CSA), and has been designed to give us a better insight into the day-to-day cyber challenges we face. It is critical for businesses and organisations to understand that hard-earned trust, reputation and commercial viability are significantly compromised during a single cyber incident. This course provides practical advice on how to better safeguard your company and personal information at work and at home, and offers techniques for identifying different types of potential or actual cyber attacks.
