Most cases of compromised data are the result of unintentional actions, or inactions, and can be prevented by following good information security practices. Compromised data can result in major security breaches that damage work, careers and reputations, and are expensive to repair. Information security is everyone’s responsibility.

To inform everyone about threats to information security and good practices to reduce the risks associated with those threats, Georgetown University has implemented a mandatory Cybersecurity Awareness Training Program. 

The program consists of several engaging and informative video modules covering a number of important information security topics. 

These modules are assigned to university staff and faculty and student workers automatically, and can be completed at your convenience on a monthly basis. 

Be on the lookout in your mailbox for your introductory cybersecurity module!
