Digital Skills
Safety (Tier 2)
Cybersecurity practices, data protection, and digital safety in professional environments.
Overview
Safety Tier 2 covers advanced cybersecurity awareness: phishing detection, password management, data protection regulations (GDPR), secure communication, and incident response. Questions often present scenarios where you choose the safest action.
What is tested
- Phishing and social engineering detection
- Password management and multi-factor authentication
- GDPR principles and data subject rights
- Secure file sharing and encrypted communication
Preparation tips
- GDPR: know the 6 legal bases for processing, especially consent and legitimate interest
- Phishing signs: urgency, misspelled domain, unexpected attachments
- MFA (multi-factor authentication) always adds security — if it is an option, it is likely correct
- Data minimization: collect only what you need, keep only as long as necessary
