This course has two purposes:
- To introduce data privacy and information security comprehensively so that you can apply it in your personal and professional life.
- To provide you with the historical context and technical know-how to navigate this ever-changing field of data processing and your privacy rights.
This class provides an in-depth guide to data protection that can be employed to protect your personal data or in a work environment in which you may be handling the personal data of others.
Students who enroll in this course will work through fifteen comprehensive topics, and each lesson will define the specific topic, explain its significance to data privacy and information security, and will provide specific insights, strategies, or tools for refining skills associated with these topics.
Developing and implementing these skills and strategies can give you a greater sense of privacy and, ultimately, lead to increased protection of your personal information in this data-driven world.
