Most people use a wide range of technology daily, including smartphones, computers, IT infrastructure and other smart devices, for both work and personal purposes. Cyber security is about protecting these devices, systems and the data contained within them from unauthorised access or misuse. It is essential to understand how to keep information secure and be aware of the methods cyber criminals may use to trick individuals into gaining unauthorised access. 

This Cyber Security Awareness course provides learners with an introduction to the cyber risks to data protection that they may encounter and shares a range of practical tips to follow to remain secure online.
