This course is designed as an introductory-level information security course for anyone looking to develop an understanding of essential IT security concepts.
As organisations become more dependent on IT systems to store data, facilitate communication among colleagues and customers, and track business-related statistics, information is becoming more precious and its security increasingly crucial and challenging.
In this course, you’ll explore information security concepts and the security-related roles within organisations. You’ll learn about security governance and the activities involved in it. You’ll explore the actions that expose us to security risks, the roles we play in maintaining or breaching security, and the various controls that can be implemented to mitigate risks. You’ll investigate advanced persistent threats (APTs), insider threats, and uncertainty in relation to cybersecurity, as well as the various types of malware and security threats. You’ll also learn effective methods to reduce common security risks that render organisations vulnerable.
