Cyber Security now (Are you Cyber Aware? + SCIC Ambassadors)
|
This training course outlines the most common threat vectors that have been identified during the
teleworking months. The presentation will open with a simplified introduction of the global
cybersecurity threat landscape and the threat actors behind the most common attack techniques. It
will then continue with a brief explanation about how the EC is organised and how DIGIT works in
order to protect the EC infrastructure and assets. We will spend quite some time seeing and discussing
how the main attack techniques are conceived, crafted and tailored: Phishing, Malware and
Ransomware attacks, DDoS attacks and BEC (business email compromise). In conclusion, you will
receive a series of good practices and advice on how to approach and react if targeted by one of
attacks, how to protect yourself both at work and at home and how to keep staying vigilant a whole
year round.
The session that includes the hacking demonstration will show exactly how a cyber-attack is launched,
infects the users and the consequences.
The second part is a presentation by our very own SCIC Cybersecurity Ambassadors at 16h30.
