The program, module by module
Module 1 — Specific security challenges
Understand why security for a public institution or a media outlet is about continuity of service and public trust, not just financial loss.
Module 2 — Personal data protection and compliance
Map the personal data collected — what, where, who accesses it, for how long — before applying minimization and limited retention.
Module 3 — Securing broadcast and streaming infrastructure
Secure an exposed streaming feed — default credentials, access keys, network segregation — by ranking the flaws in order of priority.
Module 4 — Access and authorization management
Build an access matrix applying the least-privilege principle, to prevent the privilege drift that builds up across job changes.
Module 5 — Cyberthreats targeting media
Analyze a media social-account hijacking and the defenses that would have limited it: two-factor authentication, a recovery procedure, active monitoring.
Module 6 — Business continuity planning
Write a continuity plan for one essential activity: maximum acceptable downtime, a degraded-mode fallback, and a drill to test it actually holds.
Module 7 — Staff awareness
Design a phishing-awareness workshop built on a real fake email, without a blame culture that pushes agents to hide their mistakes.
Module 8 — Real-world case study
Dissect a real fraudulent wire transfer to identify the stack of human, access, and procedural failures that made it possible.
Module 9 — Professional Integration and Certification
CertificationCross-cutting module: CV/portfolio, professional brand, interview practice, and job market activation — specific to this course's real career outcomes. Triggers generation of the final certificate.

See a sample certificateHow certification works
Three levels, from simplest to most demanding. Each one only claims what it actually verifies.
Attendance certificate
Earned by: Modules followed
Proves: You followed the track — no graded assessment.
Certificate of achievement
Earned by: Full track completed on the platform, final project included, and final exam passed
Proves: Your knowledge and your final project, evaluated by the platform.
Field Practice Validated distinction
Earned by: A field challenge completed after the exam, in a real situation, with evidence
Proves: A CoursTech mentor reviewed and validated a genuine real-world application.
The distinction is added to your certificate of achievement — it never replaces it: nothing off-platform ever blocks the certificate itself.
