This e-learning module is intended to raise awareness of IT security issues and serves as basic training for all members of staff at the University of Duisburg-Essen. This online training is divided into nine units that take 5–15 minutes each. It will take a little more than one hour to finish the entire course.
The foundations of IT security will be explained. The following contents will be covered:
- Emails and email encryption
- Threat from computer viruses
- Passwords and social engineering
- Surfing the Internet
- Confidential information – data protection
- Social media
- Cloud services
- Mobile devices, wireless networks and USB flash drives
- Conduct in the workplace
As the individual units are self-contained, you can do the course at your own pace and in the order that suits you best.
At the end of each unit, you can test your knowledge in a short quiz.
We hope you will enjoy this online training.
