Cyber security is everyone’s responsibility. Prevent attacks, mitigate risk, and get up to speed with best practice cyber governance.
You might have heard it before: cyber security is everyone’s responsibility. According to the ABS, there were 693,000 local cyber attacks in 2015, and 60% of those targeted small and medium business. The latest estimates put the price of online crime in Australia at $1 billion per year. You really don’t want to be part of that statistic. There’s never been a more crucial time to upskill in cyber security.
This is one of the few courses that tackles cyber crime from a strategic perspective. There’s no technical or IT knowledge required. You will be working on how to prepare a cyber security strategy, how to champion and own it and how to communicate this back to your business.
We have built this course in collaboration with leading cyber security experts from Palo Alto Networks and NAB. It runs entirely online and over six weeks so you can fit it in and around your work and life schedule.
