Cyber Security

This introductory course in cybersecurity is designed to provide a comprehensive foundation for individuals looking to understand the digital threat landscape. The course is structured into three pivotal areas: it begins with the fundamentals of cybersecurity, establishing the core principles of data protection and system integrity. It then transitions into a practical analysis of common attacks, helping students recognize the methods hackers use to exploit vulnerabilities. Finally, the course emphasizes that security isn't just about software by covering non-technical measures, focusing on the "human element" and the essential habits required to maintain robust cybersecurity hygiene in any professional or personal environment.
