About This Course

Cyber Exposure is defined as the vulnerabilities created when we use computer and network technology. All too often the focus is strictly on the technical issues and exposures arising from the use of Social Media or the Internet of Things (IoT) are ignored.

These and many others can create cyber vulnerabilities for the organization that go unrecognized until they create major problems. By taking this course you will gain an awareness of the wide range of exposures that exist and how to identify and manage them.

The course is broken into six modules each less than 10 minutes in duration to allow it to fit into busy schedules.

At the end of each module there is a 10 question quiz that will let you know if you understood the concepts presented.

By the end of the course you will have an understanding of the wide range of cyber exposures that can arise from the use of technology and networks as well as awareness of some tools to address and manage them.

Upon successful completion of all quizzes and exercises you will get a Certificate of Completion from Global Risk Academy
