What's This Course About

Cyber Security Awareness Workshop shows you how to recognise and defend against the cyber threats that target individuals and businesses every day. Most successful attacks start with a human mistake, such as clicking a phishing link, reusing a password or installing a malicious app, so security awareness is one of the most effective defences an organisation can have. This workshop is designed for employees at every level, managers, small business owners and anyone who wants to stay safe online.

You will start with cyber security threats, learning how phishing, social engineering, malware, ransomware, scams, identity theft and data breaches work, with real-world examples of how attackers operate. Next you will cover protection against cyber security threats, including creating strong passwords and using a password manager, enabling multi-factor authentication, securing devices and home networks, safe browsing and email habits, protecting personal data on social media and recognising scam messages and calls.

The final topic focuses on security management for businesses, covering basic security policies, data protection obligations, secure remote working, backups, incident reporting and building a security-aware culture in your team. The workshop uses interactive examples, quizzes and practical demonstrations. By the end, you will be able to spot common cyber threats, apply practical safeguards to protect yourself and your organisation, and know what to do if something goes wrong.
