Description

In a world where smartphones store gigabytes or personally identifiable information, human error remains the single biggest threat to the security of your information.

Not taking the cybersecurity precautions covered in this course when you use a smartphone has become riskier than ever.

While no one is 100% secure against a mobile attack, there’s a lot you can do to discourage thieves and hackers from targeting you, your family, friends or colleagues.

All it takes is one wrong click for you to become a victim of identity theft, fraud or a data breach. If your kids, loved ones or coworkers use your mobile device, this course is for them too.

Who this course is for:

Anyone who use a smartphone or other mobile device for communications.

A lot of the statistical data has probably changed now, but that's only due to when the content was probably produced and in a fast paced technological world is to be expected. That said the information was very interesting and I would encourage more people to view this content also. As a UK resident, I would like to see someone create and deliver some content which is relevant to the UK, to DPA and the GDPR regulation but for now I'm just happy to have some content to refer to.
