Description: End User Security Awareness (EUSA) course aims to teach non-IT users the importance of securing oneself from Cyber threats. This course is not limited to non-IT users but also people already in the IT field.


I already completed this free IT course last February 2017. I have to review and share this one as it's a very helpful and a must course for every IT and non-IT professionals. It's very basic and easy to understand. It really targets non-IT people to make them understand the importance of protecting themselves from cyber attack at work and outside of work.

The course is interactive. It's made of Flash media. Non-IT will not get easily bored with this course. They'll get engaged with it.

I wish, I can just embed the badges from their site with auto-generated code. I just saved a copy for myself. When you buy a Badge, It'll appear in your Cybrary profile. I guess, It's also okay to download a copy of your Badge like what's above. I did paid it with Cybytes anyway.


Note, Cybyte is Cybrary's digital currency. You can gain Cybytes by sharing videos of their course through Social Media sites, by logon to their site daily or you can pay for it with real money.



Cybrary Certificate:


The Certificate costs 25 Cybytes and it's in .pdf file where you can download and print.

  3. Oh what a good out-reach for people who are very engaged into the internet and not knowing the security risks they are facing. A must try since the price is Free.

  7. Cyber safety is something a lot of us take very leniently till we actually get hacked. I always tend to use the same set of passwords no matter where I am signing up. A course like this would be useful for me to learn the basics. Great review :)
