Cyber Security Studio
Ten hands-on days learning to protect people and organisations online.
Cyber Security Studio teaches security the way defenders practise it, at the centre or live online. Students learn the CIA triad, passwords and multi-factor authentication, phishing, privacy, encryption, networks and risk, then design and present a security awareness campaign or a security plan. Everything is defensive and authorised.
