Cybersecurity Essentials for Media Managers

Cybersecurity Essentials for Media Managers

Overview

Cyber risks constitute critical business threats for media organizations. They no longer concern IT only. Cyberattacks target non-corporate IT material and humans:  they happen in production where networks, equipment, processes and staff can be subject to malevolent attacks, as well as in distribution, where content is published on an increasing number of potentially vulnerable platforms.

Cybersecurity is everyone’s responsibility and even more so if you are a manager and a team leader. The Master Class will give you the knowledge and tools that, as a manager, you need to:

  • Understand and learn to identify the risks and how best to mitigate them at your level,
  • Understand and learn key techniques to identify an attack but also to lower its impact,
  • Keep up to date with cybersecurity measures and raise the awareness of your team,
  • Become an active supporter of your broadcaster’s cybersecurity experts & strategy.
