This ten-minute course provides employees with an introduction to phishing and ransomware, and what they need to be aware of to help prevent attacks. Educating your staff means you can significantly reduce the risk of your organisation falling victim to an attack.
IT Governance has developed the phishing and ransomware course in light of the WannaCry ransomware exploit, which spread rapidly across networks and affected 200,000 organisations in 150 countries, including the UK’s National Health Service, Telefónica in Spain and Nissan’s Sunderland plant.
