Security Awareness Training
This Security awareness training is a formal process for educating employees about computer security. A good security awareness program should educate employees about corporate policies and procedures for working with information technology (IT). Employees should receive information about who to contact if they discover a security threat and be taught that data is a valuable corporate asset.
But it’s also including Encouragement and Empowerment -- Personal Connection. Data is valuable. A good cyber-hygiene improves Data & Device security. By having the right Security Awareness Training Policy (once, or twice a year), it helps to mitigate risks and threats that may arise from well-known means like Phishing attacks and Account Takeovers as a priority for most organizations.
Also to comply with industry regulations or frameworks such as PCI (Payment Card Initiative), HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996), the Sarbanes-Oxley reporting requirements, NIST and ISO.
