Attackers do not need to hack what they can google: public profiles provide the material for tailored attacks. Technology alone stops no attack — what matters is how your people react in everyday situations.

The course shows how attackers collect and exploit public information (OSINT), how to weigh professional and private disclosure, and how the right privacy settings shrink your attack surface. The content follows recognised guidance (BSI — Sicherheit in sozialen Netzwerken) and is tailored to typical everyday situations.

The topic ships in two formats: a full story course (approx. 15 minutes) with voiced video dialogues, decisions and a final test — or a micro series (approx. 20 minutes in total) released in short units over several weeks. Learners receive a personal certificate after passing the test; every completion is documented audit-proof. Available in up to 10 languages with native voice-over.
