This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

(Some images used in this course have been created using artificial intelligence (AI) for illustrative and educational purposes. These images are not real photographs of actual people, organisations, or events and are intended solely to support learning and understanding.)

If you are an employee who uses email, messaging apps, cloud tools, or AI tools at work, this course is for you.
Have you ever wondered how a single click on a link, a quick file upload to an AI tool, or a rushed reply to an urgent message could put your organisation at risk? Do you sometimes feel that cybersecurity sounds too technical, or that AI risks are someone else’s problem? This course is designed to change that — clearly, practically, and without technical jargon.

This course gives you a clear, real-world understanding of how modern cyberattacks and AI-related risks actually reach employees, and how small everyday actions can either prevent or trigger serious security incidents. Instead of focusing on complex tools or policies, it focuses on you — your decisions, habits, and responses — and shows how they directly impact organisational security.

In this course, you will:

• Develop the ability to recognise phishing, smishing, vishing, and AI-based impersonation attempts before they cause damage

• Build strong everyday security habits around passwords, multi-factor authentication, browsing, and device usage

• Strengthen your awareness of AI risks such as accidental data exposure, hallucinations, and prompt injection

• Apply simple, practical steps to respond quickly and correctly when something feels suspicious

• Adopt safe data-handling practices in an AI-enabled workplace

• Reinforce secure behaviours for remote work, public Wi-Fi, and personal devices

Why is this topic so important?
Cybersecurity incidents today rarely start with sophisticated hacking — they start with human behaviour. At the same time, AI tools are now part of everyday work, quietly introducing new risks that most employees are not trained to spot. Organisations can invest in the best technology, but one unintentional mistake can still open the door. This course empowers you to become a strong first line of defence, not through fear, but through awareness and confidence.

Throughout the course, you will engage with short, focused video lectures, practical explanations, and quizzes that reinforce real-world decision-making. The scenarios are workplace-relevant and globally applicable, helping you connect concepts directly to what you do every day.

What makes this course different is its employee-first approach. It avoids technical overload and policy-heavy language, focusing instead on realistic situations, simple mental models, and clear actions you can take immediately. The course also bridges cybersecurity and AI safety — a combination most awareness programs still treat separately — making it highly relevant for today’s AI-enabled workplace.

If you want to work smarter with technology while staying safe, confident, and responsible, this course is for you.
