Cyber Security Awareness Training

What is cyber security awareness?

Cyber security awareness is a measure of how well an organization’s employees understand the nature of cybersecurity dangers, how such concerns might jeopardize organizational security, and what actions employees should take if they encounter a threat.

Why is cyber security awareness training for employees important?

Employee awareness training on cybersecurity not only helps to mitigate one of the most common causes of costly data breaches: human error, but it also encourages better cyber security. Organizational security posture and cyber resilience can be dramatically improved by teaching workers how to identify and combat cyber threats.

How many hours of training does an employee need?

The number of hours of training to successfully educate employees in security awareness depends on the individual. Some employees will learn much more quickly than others. That’s why our Awareness Training provides individualized risk scores for employees that let you determine how effective training has been for each individual and to provide additional training or one-on-one coaching when necessary.

With several cyber security awareness training programs available, it is important to find a program that is comprehensive enough for all employees from senior management to those with less technical experience. Our Cyber Security Awareness Training is the only dedicated, comprehensive cyber security awareness training program for employees that enables organizations to get the maximum return on investment.
