Why Security Awareness?

Data breaches are rising, and it's becoming more dangerous to function online. This is where a good security awareness program is essential. Most importantly, we (the nerds)need YOU to help keep things secure.

That's right. Security is more than anITor Security department function, and we haven't been as good at communicating that to you in the past.

You may hear professionals claim that everyone is getting compromised over simple attacks that have been around for decades. It starts as something easy to prevent and then launches into an intelligence war. "It's easy to protect yourself,"some may claim."All you need to do is be careful what you download, who you talk to, and what you allow to happen."They give off the vibe that people don't care.

If you boil everything down to its barest essence, that could be true. Why do we continue to get hammered with news of more breaches if it's so easy?

Unfortunately, even the best security awareness programs out there are missing one key part.

The WHY.

Making Security Awareness Better

This security awareness training course will not only give you the "what"to look out for but also the "why" and how the "what"works. After taking this course, you'll bearmedwith knowledge on better protecting yourself and your organization from threats.

Surprisingly, the most significant change will probably not be to start doingbut rather to stop doing.You'll be surprised at how some of your behavior is super risky, even without realizing it.

And the best part is,I won't twist your arm or shame you into changing. Isincerely want you to succeed, so there's no victim shaming here.Ibelieve there's a better way to modify your behavior than vehemently shove security terms and nerd speak down your throat.

This Security Awareness Course IS:

1. a security awareness course meaning it's information and awareness based.We will look at the "what,"the "why,"and some behaviors.

2. Essentially a computer and Internet safety training course.

3. For anyone at work who has a security awareness training requirement.

4. For home users who want to learn more about internet security and privacy.

This Security Awareness Course is NOT:

1. Atechnical or operational security guide.

2. A technically charged coursewith jargon that only your ITor Security department would understand.

Since this course is NOT technical, beginners ranging fromyour co-worker that barely knows how to turn a computer on to your Grandma that uses Facebook too much can take and understand this course. We're simply looking at threats, attack vectors, and behaviors to help reduce the sting of attacks.
