What training is available on cyber security for care staff?

There is a wide range of cyber security training and resources available – from formal qualifications to basic awareness raising. Visit Digital Social Care’s cyber security guidance for links to training and resources. These pages include information about training from organisations such as the National Cyber Security Centre, as well as short films and guides that you can adapt for your own training and awareness raising sessions.

We have also developed a managers’ discussion tool and a simple assessment tool for frontline staff. These can help you to answer questions about staff’s knowledge and competency in relation to data protection within the Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT).  Find the tools and related report here.
