Who it is for
Written for remote workers. No technical background is needed, and nothing in it assumes a previous course.
This course from Blocknorth gives remote and hybrid workers a practical, in depth guide to staying safe wherever they work, at home, in a cafe, in a co-working space or on the move. No technical background is needed: you will learn to secure your home network and devices, work safely away from the office, and spot the social engineering that specifically targets distributed teams.
Course contents
4 units. Each ends with a 10-question quiz; 8 correct unlocks the next unit.
Why Distributed Work Changes Your Risk Profile
- What a managed office network quietly protects you from, and what disappears when you work elsewhere
- Why your home network and personal devices become part of the business's attack surface
- Why verifying a person or a request is harder without the ability to just glance across the office
- A real case where attackers deliberately targeted a distributed, remote-working team
Securing Your Home Network and Devices
- Router hardening in practical depth: default passwords, firmware and encryption
- Setting up and using a guest network to separate smart devices from your work device
- Smart devices as individual attack points, and the personal and work device boundary (BYOD)
- Family and shared device risk at home
Working Safely Away From Home
- Public Wi-Fi, evil twin networks, and using a VPN properly
- Zero trust access explained in plain English
- The physical risks of cafes, co-working spaces and business travel
- Video call and virtual meeting security, including verifying who is on a call
The Human Side of Distributed Work
- Why trust and identity are harder to verify at a distance
- A real case where a single phone call to a help desk led to a breach costing around $100 million
- Verifying a colleague's identity or an unusual request when you cannot walk over and ask
- Staying connected to a security culture, and a personal remote-work security checklist
