Course overview
When it’s used properly, social media is great for individuals and businesses. It lets people connect with other like-minded souls, provides a platform for advertising that reaches further than anything else, and makes communicating simple. But it does have its downsides. And in business, one of those is cyber-threats.
Your employees not having an awareness of social-media security can leave your business vulnerable. And it could be something small and seemingly insignificant that creates a risk. Like accidentally sharing an image, or getting duped by a fake account. So, it’s vital for them to understand what can, and does, go wrong, so they can avoid it.
