About This Course

Cybersecurity has never been more prominent in the news than these days. Colossal breaches made headlines across the globe. In nearly all cases it was a human who clicked on an attachment that installed malware or unveiled sensitive information. Becoming aware of cyberattack tactics and techniques will reduce the chances of a data breach dramatically.

Computers, smartphones, and other devices leave a wide range of opportunities for those who act unlawfully. Who should attend? Our video training program is focused on increasing cyber security for organizations of all sizes.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
