Lack of security awareness is one of the greatest threats to your computer systems and IT infrastructure. The only way to mitigate this risk is by having a regular and diversified security awareness program. A program that encourages users to think about security, recognize risks and learn to respond accordingly.
Unfortunately, most people find security issues dry and uninteresting, and that's why conventional training programs often fail to reach their goals.
The AwareGO Program is different
First we start by giving users easy access to the program online. The program itself is broken into 12 episodes each of these 5 to 7 minute long and focused on a specific security issue. Using humorous scenarios, a problem is presented along with the appropriate action. Humor makes the otherwise dry material interesting and engages the user.
The greatest cost associated with a security awareness program is the time it takes to train and manage the users. By keeping the episodes short users can watch them virtually any time, minimizing any intrusion into their normal day. Additionally, by making the material interesting less effort is needed to manage the users.
