Cyber Security Awareness Training includes several lessons requested by our Enterprise clients as a program to help all employees at all levels understand cyber security threats and security best practices for both their corporate devices as well as their personal devices at home.
"Cyber security awareness training is more helpful in keeping your company secure and threat's mitigated than any one vendor tool on the market such as Anti-Virus, Anti-Malware, or other security services."
"Untrained employees are every company's weakest link."
We believe should be this course should be part of mandatory training during the new hire process, and employee onboarding. Some companies may want this course included during vendor onboarding (for contractors) who have not had Cyber Security Awareness Training previously as part of a comprehensive threat mitigation program. We recommend companies include company-specific security training, along with resources to keep data secure through company-trusted applications, and protocols.
