BENEFITS OF ATTENDING
In today’s world and further into the digital future, all organizations – small and large
and especially regulated industries – face an ever-increasing number of
information-related security challenges and risks against a backdrop of increasing
national and global compliance, and audit standards and legislation.
Cybersecurity is the protection of data from theft and damage, business information,
people’s identities, and how all businesses can be better equipped to work more
safely in an increasingly online world where sensitive and personal information is
stored, shared, and communicated.
In addition, Cybercrimes are offences that are committed against individuals or
groups with a criminal motive to intentionally harm the reputation of the victim or
cause physical or mental harm or loss using modern telecommunication networks
such as Internet (chat rooms, emails, notice boards and groups) and mobile phones.
Confidence in the digital future is essential to the growth of all organizations. It
means being aware of cybersecurity risks, and understanding industry standards and
compliance requirements while embracing opportunities for growth; and being able
to assess which threats could affect your business goals and having the agility to
deal with them as they arise.
This course covers effective strategies, techniques, systems, polices, and procedures
to establish stronger cybersecurity and cybercrime controls, reduce operational risk,
and improve online working whilst covering international best practices, ISO
standards, compliance, audit, and industry regulations.
