Welcome to LTUIS0 – Security Induction Training. This unit is a non-credentialed, non-compulsory subject offered to students and staff across La Trobe campuses, including online and offshore students. The purpose of LTUIS0 is to make students and staff aware of the importance of following good cybersecurity practices when using digital systems, to protect their identity and confidential information and ultimately contribute to the strength and resiliency of La Trobe’s cybersecurity posture.
LTUIS0 comprises 3 books (can be found under module 2) that will cover Password Management, Phishing Scams, Email and Cloud Security. This subject is entirely self-paced and is designed to minimise overhead on students and staff, keeping in mind how busy you can get during the semester.
Upon the completion of LTUIS0, graduates will:
Defend themselves against common cyberattacks against passwords and understand the impacts of a password compromise.
Learn the components of an adequately complicated password for hackers to attempt to compromise.
Understand the human psychology behind phishing emails and learn to assess and manage when they receive one.
Learn how to protect their personal and academic information while on campus, travelling interstate or overseas, by using various tools and services.
There is an end of unit quiz comprising 10 multiple-choice questions that will test your understanding of LTUIS0. It is important to note that a minimum score of 50% must be obtained in this quiz to pass the unit and receive the digital badge on your LMS dashboard.
