The course was developed to teach users how to protect computers against
any type of malicious code
GLENDALE, September 29, 2003 – One of the key points in any corporate
security policy, and one which is often overlooked, is the need to train
all network users in IT security.
No matter how advanced the antivirus protection systems installed,
corporate security is at risk if users are ignorant about today’s viruses.
For this reason, Panda Software has created and launched, for both business
and home users, a ‘Basic Virus Course’, aimed at teaching users about
viruses, their origins, their effects, means of transmission and how to
protect against them.
This course has been designed for absolutely any user, whether they are
computer experts or complete beginners. Throughout each of the twelve
chapters of the course, users will be presented a series of animations and
explanations, making the course entertaining as well as highly informative.
The course also includes a series of exercises so that students can self
check their understanding of the basic concepts of the course.
This latest initiative is very much in line with Panda Software’s principle
objective of ridding the planet of viruses. With countless new viruses
appearing everyday, users need to be fully aware of the risks and how to
deal with them. In order to do so, it is necessary to know at least, the
minimum security measures that should be taken, as well as being up-to-date
on the latest developments. Users can learn all this, quickly and simply,
with Panda Software’s ‘Basic Virus Course’.
Companies that want to enhance their IT security policies will find this an
extremely powerful yet simple tool. Similarly, this enjoyable course will
help staff actively contribute, to the organization’s security.
