AWARENESS & THREAT TRAINING
CRUCIAL. REQUIRED. EFFECTIVE.
An awareness and training program is crucial in that it is the vehicle for disseminating information that users, including managers, need in order to do their jobs. In the case of an IT security program, it is the vehicle to be used to communicate security requirements across the enterprise. An effective IT security awareness and training program explains proper rules of behavior for the use of agency IT systems and information.
With cybercrime continuing to increase every year Security Awareness and Threat Training is a critical component of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy. Encompassing various tools and techniques used to inform and equip employees with the knowledge of security risks and how to avoid them. Educating employees allows an understanding of the cyber-risks your business faces every day, the impact they have on your business and their roles and responsibilities in protecting the safety and security of digital assets. Well-educated and trained employees can quickly identify social engineering threats and potential digital vulnerabilities, which can significantly reduce the risk of cybersecurity incidents and help prevent data breaches. Security awareness and threat training not only helps stop threat actors, but also promotes an organizational culture that is focused on data security and cyber-risk mitigation.
