IT Security Awareness Training to Reduce Cyber Risk

When dealing with IT Security Awareness, unfortunately, the vital training needed is often viewed as a luxury and not as a necessity. Well, security awareness training can no longer be viewed as "optional," with today's increasing risks. Security awareness training is the first step toward the protection of your organization, and when these security measures are in place, valuable corporate assets and important information and data are securely protected from being compromised or breached.

An organization's best defense against internal and external breaches is not just technology and security tools alone; but it is the involvement of the entire culture of the particular environment, providing the organization with the necessary knowledge, preparation, and security awareness that promotes automatic, intuitive, and accurate response and behavior in the support of information security.

Through our Learning Management System (LMS), INFOSIGHT also offers security awareness training courses on a variety of topics that are appropriate for particular audiences, from users to executive managers. We also customize material for specific audiences! Our professional consultants will analyze your organization's specific training needs to deliver a specific, effective, and affordable security awareness program best suited for your employees.

We will identify areas of concern, develop a baseline of staff security knowledge, and measure the progress of your awareness program. Training goals can be achieved through a variety of means, including onsite or Internet delivery, and all training materials are easy to use and available for various audience or participants' sizes and locations.

Here are some questions to ask to determine how vulnerable your network may be:

• How long ago was my last vulnerability test?
• How many changes and or upgrades has my network had since my last vulnerability test?
• Do the counter measures I have in place to prevent an intrusion actually work?
• What security layers should I implement next to best protect my company's assets?
• Do I know where confidential and sensitive data is located on my network enterprise wide?
• How do I know if my IT Security reports are accurate?
