Remote Teams: Digital Security While Working From Home

Course Overview

Working from home exposes employees - and the organisations they work for - to a range of cybersecurity risks. Remote workers are frequently targeted by phishing attacks and email fraud, and they are often more vulnerable to hacking, malware and viruses, and data theft. Meanwhile, the digital tools and systems on which remote teams depend create yet more openings for cyber-attack. These attacks can be costly for target organisations, and may entail severe reputational damage.

“Remote Teams: Digital Security” equips remote workers to recognise and combat digital security risks. The 3-minute animation - with rich, learning-focused visual content and lively audio narration - provides information and strategies which can significantly reduce the risk of a remote employee falling victim to a cyberattack.
