Basic Cybersecurity Course
In accordance with the Cybersecurity Act (ZoKB) and considering that the university is the operator of a reported significant information system (UIS), it is essential to regularly train all users. This training takes place annually and is mandatory for all employees, students, and external collaborators.
The training is conducted in the form of a short online course in the MOODLE system and concludes with a test. You will typically have 3 weeks to complete the course.
Employees will be notified about the training via email, which will include a link to the course. Students will receive key information in the UIS, known as a "zásadka."
KB courses can be found on the page https://moodle.mendelu.cz, where after logging in via Shibboleth, you can either:
- through the All Courses tab at the top, access a filter for individual departments. From there, navigate through university-wide departments/OIT/cybersecurity to find all current KB courses.
- through the My Courses tab, access all assigned/enrolled courses.
Enrollment in the KB course requires self-registration, so when searching for the course using the filter, use the All Courses tab. Note: In the course, you participate in the role of a student, so you enroll as a student.
How to Access the Course from the Link
When using the link (whether from an email or zásadka), the MOODLE login page will open. Logging in via Shibboleth is required. In the next step, enter the same login credentials as for the UIS. Afterward, the course will appear with a request for self-registration for course students. Yes, you will participate in the role of a student.
After self-registration, the course will open with a welcome text. You will also receive an email welcoming you to the course. Next, you will go through the Study Materials, and then the test will be unlocked. Good luck completing the course!
