Cyber Security Risk
In today's digital world, information and systems are an organisation’s greatest assets and its greatest
threats. Cyber security incidents can result in significant financial, legal, regulatory, reputational, and
customer impacts, potentially leading to the end of an organisation. Community expectations have
changed, and organisations can no longer afford to overlook cyber security threats and management
activities. This course examines key areas of information security risk faced by organisations and
discusses the standards, guidelines, frameworks, and methodologies available for effective
management.
​
Governance and Risk Management
Good governance encompasses the systems by which organisations are controlled and the mechanisms
by which they and their members are held accountable. It is demonstrated when all directors and senior
executives share a common understanding of risk. This course provides an understanding of effective
governance, including the function of risk management, and how both contribute to improved
corporate performance.
Governance Essentials
Good corporate governance is integral to achieving business and strategic objectives. It promotes clear
and transparent reporting lines, effective compliance systems, risk management, and stakeholder
confidence, and is built on an organisational culture of ethics and trust. This course explains the
meaning of governance and examines how governance frameworks, structures, operations, and
processes contribute to enhanced organisational performance and the achievement of business and
strategic objectives.
