Lesprogramma

• Using Technology Responsibly
In most jurisdictions, the law requires you to use a seatbelt while driving. Even if it were not a legal requirement, most people would probably wear a seatbelt anyway, because it's an important part of being a responsible driver. Using computing technology is no different—you're obligated to use it responsibly, whether due to regulations, organization policies, or just a general desire to act safely and securely. In this lesson, you'll ensure your use of technology—including artificial intelligence (AI)—follows this mindset.
• Resisting Social-Engineering Attacks
Believe it or not, the weakest links in all of cybersecurity are usually the users themselves. Social engineering in the technology realm makes it easier for attackers to safely conduct attacks remotely, by phone, or over the Internet—all while avoiding technical cybersecurity defenses.
• Securing Devices
Technology is all around us, and it's getting ever more personalized and individualized. As a result, some of the responsibility for the security of these devices has shifted from IT personnel to everyday users.
• Using the Internet Securely
The Internet is an excellent place to conduct business, research information, or seek entertainment. It can also be a dangerous place for the careless or unwary. As you browse the web, send email, interact through social networking, use cloud services, or work remotely, you must learn how to protect yourself, your data, and your devices.
• Completing the Course
You'll wrap things up and then validate what you've learned in this course by taking the credential exam.
