IT Security Awareness for Executives
P/I/26 – 27/SDPC/NJ/23
Introduction
This course is designed to focus management’s attention on security. Enables an organisation to improve its security posture by giving employees the knowledge and understanding they need to better protect valuable information assets through proactive, security-conscious behaviour. They need to know the ‘why security’ to make a good management choice, as they are ultimately responsible for the security of their ministry/department. They are also responsible for daily decision-making and the infusion of values and culture throughout the organisation through their actions.
In this environment, it’s not surprising we frequently see breaches make headlines; therefore, the executives need to recognise that compliance does not equal security and checking the box is no longer sufficient. The organisation must be able to quickly detect and respond to security incidents should they occur. It’s not enough to just focus on prevention as a truly motivated, resourceful attacker will find a way in.
