Security Awareness Fundamentals
Everyday security depends on noticing small risks before they become larger problems. This course gives employees a broad introduction to protecting workplace people, information, systems, and operations, with examples involving phishing, social engineering, malware, data exposure, unfamiliar devices, and unsafe networks. A realistic microLab lets learners practice making safer decisions in situations they may encounter at work.
The course reinforces that security is a shared responsibility and introduces four practical habits employees can use when something feels unusual: pause, verify, use approved tools and processes, and report concerns quickly.
