BFSI Cybersecurity, Information & Data Security Foundations
Banks hold two things criminals want: money and data. This course covers how financial institutions protect both. It is written for BFSI professionals rather than for security specialists, so it explains the threats in plain terms and focuses on what someone working inside a bank actually needs to understand and do.
