Threats to our home network can quickly turn into threats to our workplace infrastructure and vice-versa. To combat against threats on all fronts, we must learn to practice safe computing habits both in the home and in the workplace. In this course, participants will be introduced to some key principles of safe system administration that they can use in the home that mirror techniques used in the workplace. By mastering the techniques found in this course, participants will learn to develop a regime of security-conscience behavior that will help keep important data safe from hackers, data thugs and cybercriminals.

Almost anything can be made into a "smart" device, such as security cameras and sensors, TVs, garage door openers, door locks, wearable devices, pacemakers, and even cars. These devices are what we refer to as the "Internet of Things" (IoT), which holds the promise of adding a whole new level of convenience and connectedness to everyday life. Having that many new, connected computing devices, most of which record activity, presents new challenges for security and privacy. This course teaches employees the best practices for IoT devices both at home and at work.

This course teaches employees and supervisors what PCI DSS is, how it affects your organization and the best practices they should follow to protect cardholder data and detect and prevent fraud. This course is meant for employees and supervisors in companies that require PCI DSS - 3.2 compliance.

Data in electronic and hard copy format within organizations is growing at a rate of about 125% per year and yet only 20% of that data is actually used to conduct business. Managing all of that data can become an administrative nightmare for you and the organization as a whole. This is especially true when litigation is pending and we must sift through all of our records to find certain pieces of data. This course will help you understand how to comply with the many laws, regulations, policies, and best practices that govern how long certain kinds of data should be kept and how and when to dispose of that data properly.

Because today's smartphones and tablets can not only act as a phone, but also as an email client, mobile Internet device, camera, GPS navigation system, entertainment console, and platform for any number of applications (apps), they can be exposed to many of the same risks as a desktop computer. This HTML5-based, iPad-compatible course uses high-quality video and real-world simulations to teach best practices for mobile security.

With increasingly sophisticated technical defenses for networks and computer systems, hackers often decide that it's much easier to simply go around these perimeter defenses by attacking the end user. After all, end users have what they want – a computer that's behind the network firewall, a network username and password, and possibly access to trade secrets, confidential information, and bank accounts. This course will teach end users how to identify and avoid giving away sensitive information to these hackers.

Passwords are the keys to our digital lives and protect us from hackers and cybercriminals, but how exactly could a hacker crack your password and what can you do to protect it? This HTML5-based, iPad-compatible password management course uses high-quality video and real-world simulations to show the tactics hackers use to compromise accounts and the password security best practices that can help prevent that from happening.

Mobile computing devices like laptops, smartphones, and tablets can be found everywhere - at home, in the office, and everywhere in between. These devices, combined with high speed wireless connections, make working remotely easier than ever. However, working outside of a company's secured facilities expose an organization's physical and information assets to additional threats. This course gives the best practices for working remotely.

This course covers every topic required by major standards and regulations, and is designed to change user behavior by diving deeply into each topic. Employees will master the fundamentals of information security including key principles, concepts, vulnerabilities, threats and how to counter them. By mastering the information presented in this course, employees will be able to defend personal and workplace data from malicious threats.

Key Topics: Introduction, password management, viruses and malware, mobile data, physical security, social engineering, phishers, acceptable use policies incident response, security services, risk management, network eavesdropping, encryption, malware, backups, protecting your home computer, identity theft, privacy and legal issues.

Learners take a test before the course starts, then based on those results, the course adapts so they are only presented with the course topics they don't know.
