Overview
Title:
Cybersecurity and the X-Factor
Description:
Dive into the mysterious "X-Factor" in cybersecurity, referring to the unpredictable human behavior that threatens organizational security. Despite the unpredictability highlighted by David K.
Reynolds' observation, "No one really knows why humans do what they do", this course aims to prepare participants to mitigate risks associated with human error, malice, or naïveté. Through an exploration of various training programs, participants will assess the effectiveness of Security Education, Training, and Awareness (SETA) programs, understand their potential shortcomings, and acquire tools essential for enhancing their business's security posture.
This comprehensive course covers vital topics such as hacktivism, cyber insurance, and ransomware, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of cybersecurity challenges. With a blend of readings, discussions, guest lectures, and quizzes, our expert instructors from Coursera promise an engaging learning experience tailored for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
