Basic knowledge of IT basics and security measures for non-IT specialists

Bank IT in particular is required to protect sensitive infor­mation and data with a high level of security and at the same time make it available to autho­rised persons. To achieve this, infor­mation security officers, data protection officers, IT officers and other bank employees must coordinate closely. Despite different profes­sional backgrounds, a common “language” must be found. To do this, it is advan­ta­geous to be able to visualise the conceptual world of IT in the context of its processes and inter­re­la­tion­ships. This is the only way to succeed in an inter­dis­ci­plinary exchange with IT experts about IT security measures and their effects in the company and its diverse internal and external commu­ni­cation structures.

The intensive seminar “Basic knowledge of IT basics and security measures for non-IT experts” provides the necessary knowledge about infor­mation technology and security measures. The target group is non-IT specialists in credit institutions.

The speaker Florian Schumann is IT manager at SRC Security Research & Consulting GmbH. In this position, he is respon­sible for the continuous devel­opment of IT. He is also a consultant for infor­mation security and a qualified auditor according to § 8 (a) BSIG for critical infrastructures.
