Cyber Security Awareness
Our valued, portable data assets benefit from intentional scrutiny and governance guidelines about how they should be preserved, protected, and destroyed. This course is for anyone who has data assets that are not contained in a locked file cabinet. It may also have relevance to those with hard copy documents as well, but who have not considered how those documents should be managed. Those who complete this course will be able to design and implement their data management plan.
Learners will examine practical methods to secure sensitive information and ensure proper disposal when it's no longer needed. The course also analyzes use cases across sectors such as healthcare, finance, government, and retail, making it ideal for professionals concerned with data privacy, digital security, and compliance.
