Learning Basic Cyber Security from Online Videos

If you’re interested in learning basic cyber security then one of the best ways of doing so is by making full use of the resources that are readily available. With the internet at your fingertips there’s a lot of options out there, but one of the fastest ways to anyone to wrap their head around the essentials of cyber security is by delving into many of the videos that are online.

Types of Cyber Security Videos

Generally speaking, the types of cyber security videos that you’ll find tend to vary – but most fit into the following sort of varieties:

• Introduction style videos that give you a rough overview of cyber security and what it is all about.
• Concept style videos that talk about some of the concepts associated with cyber security and may focus on specific topics such as exploits, viruses, or vulnerabilities.
• ‘How to’ style videos that show you how to perform some of the activities that are associated with cyber security.

As you can imagine, each of these types of videos is useful in its own way and when you first start there’ll definitely be benefits to watching all three. Later on the ‘how to’ video guides may be a bit more important however, as they’ll teach you how to actually do some of the things that you want to do.

Where to Find the Videos

Nowadays there are tons of different websites and video sharing platforms where you can find the videos that you need – but YouTube is a fairly good place to start. Alternatively you could use Google’s video search or even just look for cyber security websites that have their own videos.

Most of the videos that you find will be streamed, but seeing as that’s the norm it is to be expected.

Saving Cyber Security Videos for Reference

It might be a good idea to save some of the more useful cyber security videos that you find for reference. However because these videos are being streamed, you’ll need to work around it and use a desktop recordersuch as the Movavi Screen Capture Studio to get it done.

With the Movavi Screen Capture Studio you’ll be able to record the video easily however, and then you can use its other features to cut the video into segments so that you only keep the parts that are really important. If you like you can do this to several videos and then merge the important bits that you’re keeping together.

Also you can use the other features to enhance the video quality, insert customizable text, add background music or voiceovers, or even use special effects and filters. It is worth noting that you can even use the Movavi Screen Capture Studio to extract audio from video, just in case you want to save the videos in audio-only format.

By saving the better videos, you can be certain you’ll always have them on hand for reference should the need arise.
