Cyber security specialist

This course is designed for accountancy, finance and business professionals working in all organisations from small business, large corporates or financial services or who are just interested in learning more about the vulnerabilities organisations are exposed to and the options available to protect their organisation.

With a focus on practical skills throughout, this course provides the ability to apply skills as well as understand them.

Cyber crime impacts all organisations irrespective of size or geography. Organisations need to act to ensure they have appropriate protection and recovery plans in place. But who needs to take action, and what actions should they take?

Designed for finance leaders and their teams, this course requires no prior knowledge of cyber security. It looks at cyber risk from a financial or business risk management perspective.

Based on Cyber and the CFO, a research report jointly commissioned by ACCA, Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, Macquarie University’s Cyber Security Hub and Optus.
