Drill #1, #2 Flashcards
Human Firewall
With our information systems under aggressive attack, we cannot ignore any layer of the defense-in-depth model. The human element of cyber security is too often overlooked. Workforce cyber preparedness is urgently needed. Security Awareness Training can pay off by training users on what they can do to prevent malicious activity and what to do in the event of such activity. It helps people to see their identity as an important part of keeping their organization secure and that what they do matters.
