Finally, the topic explains how criminals steal identities and what they do with them. It also identifies the warning signs that indicate you may be a victim of identity theft and explains what to do if your identity is stolen.
Course assessment
You can take the cyber security assessment as soon as you have finished all the topics. The assessment consists of questions taken from banks, so the assessment changes each time you do it. This means i2Comply’s online cyber security course can be used for initial training and as a refresher course.
You can attempt the test as often as you need to. Every time you do the test, you’ll receive helpful feedback which will help you learn from your mistakes.
Course certificate
After passing your online cyber security training assessment, you will be able to view, download and print your certificate.
Your certificate will include the CPD logo and therefore, you can use it to provide evidence for compliance.
How long is the certificate valid for?
i2Comply’s online cyber security course certificate won’t expire. Although there is no expiry date on the certificate, you’ll find a recommended ‘refresher’ date. Because our assessment is generated from question banks, this is the perfect course to retake and keep the knowledge fresh in later years.

What is Cyber Security?
Cyber security is the application of technologies, processes, and controls to protect computers and networks from potential cyber-attacks. It aims to reduce the risk of these attacks and protect against the unauthorised exploitation of computer systems.
Sound knowledge and understanding of cyber security will help protect you against malicious attacks to access, change or delete sensitive data. Cyber security is used as a tool to prevent attacks that aim to disable or tamper with a computer system’s operations.
Why Cyber Security training is important?
Did you know one in two businesses have experienced cyber security breaches or attacks in the last 12 months? Therefore, investing in employees’ knowledge and capabilities is crucial to keeping your employees and business safe from cyber threats.
To help you understand why smaller businesses are more likely to be hit with a cyber-attack, we’ve written a post in our blog section.This article on Why small businesses are at higher risk of cyber attacks outlines three reasons small businesses are more vulnerable. It also includes tips on how to improve cyber security.
In our online cyber security course, you’ll learn all the procedures to follow to avoid your business being vulnerable to the threat of a cyber-attack.
