Requirements

  • All information in the course is presented in the simplest and most understandable form. No special knowledge is required to understand it. Even a child over 10 years old will understand it. There is only one requirement - you must start applying the knowledge you have gained in practice. It is not difficult, but you need to overcome your laziness to form the right habit. And you will definitely form it. But there are two ways to develop this habit. In the first case, after taking this course, you will immediately start using strong passwords and enjoy life. And in the second case, you will develop this habit after you have been hacked and there will be bad consequences. And I'm absolutely not kidding right now. There are only these 2 options, and I really hope you choose the right one.

Description

This course lays the foundation for user security on the Internet. I talk about passwords and what secure passwords should be.

While many people think this topic is too simple and unimportant, statistics show that over 75% of Americans use insecure passwords for their accounts and become vulnerable to attackers.

If you don't take passwords seriously, you're putting not only your life at risk, but the lives of your family, friends, coworkers, and even complete strangers.

That's why I believe it's impossible to keep yourself safe online without understanding the topic of passwords. And only after that can you consider and explore more complex online security topics. I will definitely touch on these topics in my next courses.

This course will give you a comprehensive basic knowledge of passwords so that you don't become an easy target for hackers. I want you to never get caught up in the horrifying statistics of people who have been hacked by internet criminals.

When you go online, you are entering a very dangerous and aggressive world. There are certain safety rules that need to be followed. Otherwise, very big problems will be waiting for you. And the first rule you need to know is what your passwords should be!

Who this course is for:

  • This course is for anyone who uses the Internet. It doesn't matter how old you are, it doesn't matter what your experience or profession is. If you connect to the Internet, you must take a basic information security course. Failure to do so can have very serious negative consequences. Experience and practical studies of information security specialists clearly show that even experienced users sometimes make the stupidest mistakes that lead to tragedy. Therefore, I recommend taking this course to everyone who uses the Internet, and therefore automatically becomes potentially vulnerable to attacks by malicious users.
