Security awareness
Most data breaches do not start with technology, they start with people. One password shared too quickly, one wrong attachment, or one lost laptop is enough.
In this course you will learn the daily habits that protect your data and your customers' data: strong passwords, sensible access to systems, sharing data safely, and spotting and reporting a breach quickly. Take the modules at your own pace and try the free practice quiz at the end.
This course gives practical tools for security awareness at work; it does not cover every technical or organisational security aspect. The information is not legal or technical advice. Always follow your own organisation's policy and guidelines; when in doubt, ask your IT lead or DPO.
