Information and Cyber Security

This security awareness training course demonstrates the importance of keeping data secure and lays out the ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts’ of information and cyber security. It also provides guidance as to what to do if you believe information you hold might be at risk.

Overview

If personal information is not recorded accurately, or is lost or disclosed to unauthorised people, then the implications for that person and for your organisation, could be extremely serious.

With the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) coming into effect in May 2018, data security issues – and courses to educate people working with information – have become even more important.
