Australians have been shocked by multiple recent events involving cyber-security breaches that have resulted in compromised personal data for millions of individuals.

This training bundle is designed to provide a non-technical but thorough understanding of cyber threats, information security best practices, and Australia’s privacy laws that seek to protect the personal information of individuals such as customers and workers.

Hurry – this special offer is only available until 30 September 2023.

The Data Security and Privacy Bundle includes two courses for the price of a single course:

• Essentials of Information Security Awareness and
• Essentials of Privacy Law.

While the courses can be completed separately, they work perfectly together to provide everyone with a thorough understanding of what they can and should do to protect themselves and their organisation from malicious actors seeking unauthorised access to confidential systems and data.
