Module 1 - Welcome To LTUIS0

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:

1. Defend themselves against common cyberattacks against passwords and understand the impacts of a password compromise.

2. Learn the components of an adequately complicated password for hackers to attempt to compromise.

3. Understand the human psychology behind phishing emails and learn to assess and manage when they receive one.

4. 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.
