THIS COURSE IS DIFFERENT
Don’t confuse it with a Privacy or Cybersecurity Course!
Companies are being hacked each day. Cyber Criminals don’t just steal data subject to privacy laws.
The CDO certificate course provides the training necessary to protect an organization’s confidential / proprietary data, strategic plans, and intellectual property against insiders and cyber-attacks. Cyber criminals are targeting the most valuable data in an organization, which often is not the data subject to privacy laws. When this data is not managed, it hinders incident response, increases business interruption losses, and harms the organization.
The CDO function enables organizations to develop a comprehensive data protection program that protects “privacy data” plus the data that is critical for operations and valuable to the company. The program is designed to help all sizes of companies from all industry sectors to build on what they have already developed and expand it using best practices and standards.



















COURSE DETAILS
