Course Summary

This course will examine the fundamentals of cyber security in terms of the threat landscape and what a well defended, security focussed organisation should look like.

According to the UK Government, 80% of cyber attacks could be prevented if organisations put simple cyber security controls in place.

This course will identify these security controls and provide a framework to determine your own cyber security approach.
