COURSE DESCRIPTION

Every organization, whatever its size or sector, is a target. Attackers rarely break in through technology alone; they rely on people: a convincing email, a reused password, an unlocked laptop, an unknown USB stick or a quick connection to public Wi-Fi. The good news is that the everyday decisions that let attacks in are also the ones that stop them.

This course gives participants with no technical background a clear and practical foundation in cybersecurity. It explains the most common threats in plain language and builds simple habits for email, passwords, devices and the workspace, so that everyone can recognize an attack, avoid the most common mistakes and report suspicious activity quickly.

The course is developed by the CISO Edu team – the cybersecurity training platform of Advanced Vision IT. The company has 15 years of industry experience, is certified to ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and ISO 20000-1 standards, and is an AWS Cloud Certified Partner, as well as a partner holding multiple certifications from leading cybersecurity solution providers, including Sophos, Acronis, and other established technology companies. The content is developed by specialists who work daily with NIS2 compliance requirements, Industrial Control Systems (ICS), and critical infrastructure environments.
