We've got another new course joining the Highfield Online Training range.
On Monday 14 September, we launched Password Management, the latest addition to our HOT Lite cybersecurity range.
Designed as a short micro-teach, the course helps learners understand how everyday password habits can increase security risks and introduces practical ways to manage passwords and account access more securely.
What does the course cover?
Learners will explore:
- password management practices that can increase security risks
- safer ways to manage passwords and account access
- unique passwords and passphrases
- approved password managers
- multi-factor authentication (MFA)
- passkeys
- practical actions that can help protect accounts and information
The course takes around 20 minutes and is compatible with most popular desktops, tablets and mobile devices.
Learners receive a Highfield Completion Certificate upon completion.
Who is it for?
Password Management is aimed at anyone who uses workplace accounts and systems, making it relevant to employees across a wide range of roles and sectors.
It's designed to provide a simple foundation for managing passwords and account access more securely.
Spotting an opportunity
Password security isn't just an IT issue. Almost every employee who accesses workplace systems, email or online accounts has a role to play.
If you're speaking to a customer about cybersecurity awareness, data protection, information security, onboarding or wider workforce training, Password Management would be worth introducing.
And don't forget the wider HOT cybersecurity offering. Customers interested in Password Management may also benefit from training such as:
- Phishing Awareness – helping employees recognise and respond safely to phishing attempts.
- Information and Data Security – for customers looking for broader awareness around protecting organisational information and data.
- GDPR training – where conversations extend into employees' responsibilities when handling personal data.
This makes Password Management particularly useful as part of a wider cybersecurity awareness training package, rather than necessarily being considered in isolation.
