Course Overview

As COVID-19 has shown us, humans can spread viruses worldwide to billions of people in just a few weeks. Computers can spread viruses globally within minutes.

Computer viruses can spread around the world in seconds, practically at the speed of light. The difference is that for most malware, we already have defenses. Good leaders are taking lessons learned from COVID-19 and its variants and are applying defensive "immunization" technical controls, engaging and retaining skilled security teams, educating their company on cybersecurity, and baking security into their culture – not as an annoyance, but as Job #1. 

A cyber pandemic has the potential to cause widespread damage to businesses and individuals all over the world, every business is at risk. In this CPE course, we will discuss how you can protect yourself from a cyber-attack as well as what steps are needed to stay safe. Now is the time to prepare.
