Now you have the buy-in from your extended team, you need to
think about the co-ordination and setting up of your training program. Security
awareness programs don’t have to be complicated to arrange. Automation is the
key to success in managing these types of operations. Security awareness is a
program that has to cater for a wide demographic. To ensure the effectiveness
of security awareness training it needs to be palatable – with usability and
accessibility of the training modules being key. It also has to have to have a
high degree of reinforcement through continued and regular training sessions
that closely mimic real-life security scenarios. Security awareness programs
like AwareED have
been specifically designed to help you make the process of on-boarding and
engagement in your awareness training as easy as possible. AwareED allows you
to create tailored packages of modules that suit a specific team of
stakeholders or a security scenario—for example, phishing. Enrollment and
customization are key features of an effective program.
Being able to enroll
your users and start security awareness training from a centralized cloud
management interface makes it easy to set up a training program. It also gives
you effective administration for continued training. Automation then kicks in
and starts the training, serving the training modules to your user base in a
way that is easily digestible and that engages, even the least technical of
your team. To summarize, the prerequisites for setting up an effective security
awareness training program are:
- Easy
enrollment
- Good
choice of modules to create tailored training packages for staff
- Automation
of training packages to user base
- Continuation
and repetition of the tailored packages
- Reporting
and analysis to continually improve education
