About the Course

The threat of cybercrime is widespread and continues to effect individuals, organisations and governments worldwide. Professionals need a sound understanding of Cyber Security Risk and how it affects them and their organisation. Cyber Security Risk Management is becoming a key requirement for any organisation, guiding not only IT based decisions but business-area priorities as well. In this course, you will learn about the relationship between cyber security risk and business value, articulate business consequences for identified risks and develop essential skills to communicate a clear and concise message.
