The aim of the “Cybersecurity Basics” course is to discuss the most important concepts, areas and tools used in the world of cybersecurity. This will enable participants to identify the most interesting further education and development direction for themselves. The ratio is approximately 80/20 training/workshop – depending on the final level of sophistication of the participants. In addition, female graduates will additionally receive free access to another online course on cyber security. It will be on an external online platform, 6 h in Polish, for independent work.
