New module added to cyber security course – Cyber Security and IT

VinciWorks is constantly updating its courses to keep up with changes in regulations, law and the risks faced by organisations every day. We also pride ourselves on providing completely customisable courses to ensure that each course is relevant to all staff in an organisation.

New module for IT professionals

IT staff in any organisation have the responsibility of ensuring their organisation is technically safe and protected. Some of the recommended steps to achieve this include:

- Applying software updates
- Implementing anti-virus and anti-malware software
- Decommissioning unnecessary services and software
- Storing passwords safely with a hash function
- Changing all default credentials

We have added a module to our cyber security course to help IT professionals and those responsible for cyber security understand how best to keep their organisation safe from potential cyber security attacks.

Through a number of interactive apps, our cyber security course takes users through different topics related to cyber security risks and provides actionable advice for improving cyber security. You can learn more about this fully customisable course and see a demo here.

How are you managing your GDPR compliance requirements?

GDPR added a significant compliance burden on DPOs and data processors. Data breaches must be reported to the authorities within 72 hours, each new data processing activity needs to be documented and Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA) must be carried out for processing that is likely to result in a high risk to individuals. Penalties for breaching GDPR can reach into the tens of millions of Euros.
