Overview
This course is FREE (for a limited time only) through a government grant in partnership with the Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA)
This ‘holistic’ cyber security course examines the ecosystem (internal and external to the organisation) and the impact on people, information, systems, processes, culture and physical surroundings. The key aim is to create a secure environment where businesses can remain resilient in the face of cyber threats.
This course assumes no technical experience or competence in cyber security management and is aimed at mid-senior level managers and professionals in digital-reliance organisations.
At the end of this course, you will have an understanding of potential cyber-attacks and the relevant protective measures for your organisation. You will also gain the knowledge of an effective cyber security strategy and programme for cyber security awareness.
