This course is a general overview of cybersecurity for employees. We all use the Internet at work, and when working remotely, so everyone needs to practice cyber safety. As an employer, we want you to practice cybersecurity best practices to protect your personal information. These same practices should also keep our company safe. There are negative business repercussions from a successful security breach, including business disruption, legal action and fines, reputational damage, and financial loss. The goal of this course is to present information in a clear and minimally technical manner so that you know exactly what to do, and what not to do, to keep yourself and your company safe.
As you navigate each lesson, you will have a chance to work through simulations and practice exercises to reinforce the content. In the end, you will have a short quiz to check your knowledge.

· Scams and Malware
· Passwords and Authentication
· Protecting Information (personal and company proprietary)
