FAQ

Why is cybersecurity awareness important?

Cybersecurity awareness is about knowing how to stay safe online and avoid common risks like phishing scams, weak passwords, and unsafe browsing. It’s important because most cyberattacks succeed due to human error, not technology failures.

Does Cybersecurity Awareness training really make a difference in office environments?

Yes. When people are trained to spot suspicious activity and use tools like two-factor authentication, cyber incidents drop significantly in organisations.

Does completing a Cyber Security Awareness course lead to a high-paying job?

A Cyber Security Awareness course alone does not guarantee a high salary. Earnings depend on your role, experience, and location. Entry-level jobs like Cybersecurity Technician usually offer modest pay, while advanced roles such as Security Architect or CISO can exceed $150,000–$250,000 annually for experienced professionals.

Does this Cybersecurity Awareness training replace technical cybersecurity tools?

No. Cybersecurity awareness works alongside security tools such as firewalls, antivirus software, and email filters. It strengthens human behaviour, which is often the weakest link in security.

Are password managers safe to use, and will this Cyber Security Awareness course cover them?

Yes. Password managers are widely recommended for creating and storing unique, strong passwords. The Cyber Security Awareness course explains how to choose and use them safely.
