Description:
The biggest threats to a company’s cybersecurity are poor security practices by its own employees. Historically, hackers have exploited software flaws to break into computers and computer networks. However, in recent years effective anti-virus and transaction monitoring software, coupled with IT personnel assigned to maintain up-to-date software patches, have made individual employees some of the weakest security links. This webinar will show you how to train your staff to protect themselves and your company from a broad range of cyberattacks.
You Will Learn How To:
- Distinguish the seven types of hackers
- Identify the four key defenses against hackers
- Assess the ways viruses, malware and ransomware get into a computer or network
- Choose hard-to-crack but easy-to-remember passwords
- Recognize phishing attacks, what they are and how to detect them
- Recognize social engineering tricks, how hackers trick employees into giving them access and how to respond
