Cyber Security – a shared responsibility – be Cyber-secured in 30 Hours
We are hearing a new buzz word ‘Cybersecurity’ during this Pandemic time; in this blog we will talk about learning materials on Cybersecurity and knowledge required about the topic.
First of all thanks to Hasso Plattner Institute for Digital Engineering gGmbH (HPI), Professor Dr. Christoph Meinel and his team for the wonderful course on the topic which made us aware more about Cybersecurity in the internet.
With the technology improving every day, number of smart/IoT devices which connects to internet has increased progressively. Internet has become one of the basic needs in addition to Food, Clothing and Shelter.
Lacking in Knowledge and awareness – many times we are not aware about the security and features of internet devices / software products which we use in day-to-day and ways to protect us from Cyber-attacks.
