Cybersecurity Awareness Training Course

Understand the cybersecurity threats that are around and protect your business

Barely a day goes by without hearing about another large scale cybersecurity breach or data loss. One of the most common attack vectors that gets exloited is through your staff when they act on information they believe to be true and correct, when infact this allows hackers to breach your IT systems and gain access to your data. Every member of staff within your organisation needs to be aware of the threats around cybersecurity so they can become cyber aware. 

This cybersecurity awareness training course is designed for non-technical people which explains the concepts to ensure members of staff throughout your organisation understand the threats that exist and how to protect against them. We have a separate and more technical cybersecurity training course designed for the technical people within your organisation. 

Throughout the day you’ll learn;

  • Why is cyber security such a big deal at the moment and why you should care
  • How to quantify the risk to your organisations in terms of lost sales, brand and reputational damage, serious data breaches and lost revenue
  • Types of cyber security attacks including;
