Employees are the first layer of cyber defence in any business so ensuring they can spot common cyber security issues or risks is essential.
The Cyber Resilience Centre for Wales (WCRC) is launching staff training sessions in Security Awareness.
Security Awareness Training provides employees with a basic but effective understanding of their cyber environment and the confidence to recognise and draw attention to any potential security issues.
Topics include:
- recognising social engineering
- how to protect against the different ‘ishings’ e.g. spear phishing, vishing, email phishing and smishing
- the importance of strong passwords
- social media conduct
- handling a ransomware attack
The training is aimed at those with little or no technical knowledge and delivered in small, succinct modules supported by real-world examples that are relevant to the context of your business.
It costs just £60 for one person, with every extra person costing an additional £10 (+VAT). To book a training session please select the following link Security Awareness Training (SAT) for Small Businesses (office365.com)
