Protecting Your Personal Data

Most people live their lives online. Yes, you might still have hobbies in the real world like meeting up with friends, eating out at restaurants, or dressing up like a Victorian dandy and riding a penny farthing around town. Tally-ho! But how do you arrange the meet-up, book the restaurant, or hire your top hat? Chances are, you do it online. Every time you use the internet, you leave digital footprints. If you’re not careful, hackers and thieves can exploit these footprints to steal your data and harm your networks. That’s why learning to protect your personal data is so important. This course will show you how.

This course is for people who want to secure their personal data online. It’ll help you recognise the risks of a data breach, identify what steps to take if you’re the victim of a cyber attack, and offer tips on tightening up your data security.
