Description
In a world of digital technology, it is easy to forget one sobering fact: our identity can be stolen from under our nose, with one click of the mouse, propelling us into nightmares in a matter of minutes, anytime, anywhere and on any one of our darling gadgets. Hackers, malware, botnets and all form of digital threats are ever more sophisticated, waiting in the shadows for that one opportunity to steal your sensitive information.
Terry Cutler, A Certified Ethical Hacker and international award winner reminds us of just how vulnerable our data really is, through chilling real-life stories, such as that of a simple USB key left purposefully behind, in any targeted enterprise’s lavatory, where an unsuspecting (albeit good-willed) employee can just pick it up, plug it in and thus, lead the hackers right into the company’s core data.
Terry’s training will teach you how to
· Easily come up with an undecipherable password
· How to secure your information on social media
· How to detect threats
· How to identify frauds
· How to find out what personal information about yourself is floating on the web
But he reminds us that no matter how stringent our defenses are, there are no silver bullets against cyber crooks and that a computer’s security is only as strong as its weakest link. That weak link is usually human error.
