Description

This is a mini-course to help individuals and organizations improve their cybersecurity and protect against cybercrime. Every person and organization starts from a different place. Make your goal to take a few steps to move forward and improve. Cybersecurity starts with knowledge and decision making. Improve your knowledge to make better decisions.

This course is not for everyone! It is academic type lectures, using my PowerPoint slides, no fancy graphics, no fancy video editing. It is not entertainment and you will need a ten plus minute attention span. Take your personal preferences into consideration and see a few sample videos before you decide if this is right for you. If you have a problem or need something, message me.

Why this course? I wrote a book in 2017 titled "Cybersecurity for the Home and Office" and have been teaching students and professionals about cybersecurity and law, and helping clients with these areas. I have built many resources, and it was time to offer them to a broader audience. I already have other courses on Udemy, it was time to build this one. I decided to start with a short, free course (under 2 hours so that I can offer it for free). I am working on my next cybersecurity book (hopefully for publication in 2026).

Here is the outline (don't forget to download the handout with lecture 1).

  • Conclusion and thank you

Now I present this valuable information to you as my gift.

If you see that it is valuable, as described, and find it worthy of a five star review or other expression of appreciation, thank you.

Building these courses is a hobby for me, I do not have significant video recording skills, nor hardly any video editing skills, and there is no production team. It's slide and lectures. This course has almost no editing, so you will hear my pauses and misspeaks, warts and all.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone desiring to improve their cybersecurity knowledge, from a comprehensive perspective.
  • For those with a 10 plus minute attention span and ability to sit through a no-frills lecture on each topic
  • This course is not for everyone but you can try out my lectures before enrolling. And money back if not satisfied. And it's free anyway.
  • Those seeking information but not edutainment. I am not an entertainer, just trying to provide solid information and knowledge.
