For beginners, with a limited knowledge of cyber security, Glasgow Caledonian University offers an Introduction to Cyber Security 7-week course.

It is designed to provide a foundation of theoretical knowledge and practical experience of network and system security. Classes take place every Friday and over the course of 7 weeks, students identify their primary goals for network and system security. The course is suitable for company employees with little cyber security knowledge and provides a mixture of theory and practical experience.

The course aims to assist companies looking to train staff in the practicalities of protecting their presence on the internet.  We provide a broad overview of the current state of cyber security and share the latest practice in corporate online security.
