Description

Social media is one of the most actively exploited attack surfaces in modern cybersecurity – and most people don’t see it coming. This course places learners inside decision-based scenarios that simulate real-world pressure, conditioning them to recognise and respond to phishing attempts, AI-powered scams, identity theft, malicious QR codes, oversharing risks, and supply-chain attacks that can compromise both personal and organisational data. It goes beyond awareness by building the digital hygiene, critical thinking, and judgement needed to act confidently when it matters most. Covering practical protection measures, incident response, secure online behaviours, and social media risk management, this course helps transform employees into a stronger human firewall against evolving cyber threats and social engineering attacks.
