Employees are the first and best defense for their organizations. When employees are trained well in importance of Cyber Security, the more prepared they will be to identify and report malicious attacks on the organization. Cyber Security Trainings should cover a multitude of topics including but not limited to:
- Phishing and Social Engineering Attacks
- Insider Threat
- Password Security and Protection
- Social Media Best Practices
- Proper Handing of Data
- Teleworking and Mobile Device Security
Recent studies have shown that shorter training courses, conducted more frequently on a monthly basis, significantly enhance both comprehension and retention of material. This approach contrasts with the traditional method of delivering a single, comprehensive training session once annually. The frequent reinforcement of key concepts in shorter, more digestible sessions helps learners to better internalize and recall information, ultimately leading to more effective learning outcomes and improved performance in their respective fields. Additionally, the monthly training allows for continuous skill development and the ability to quickly adapt to new information or changes.
