The Importance of Employee Training
In today’s digital world, cyber security is more crucial than ever. One of the biggest threats to the security of your business data isn’t external hackers—it’s your own employees. Without proper training, they can inadvertently become the gateway for cyber criminals to access your valuable information. This highlights the importance for every organisation to be training their teams to be more security savvy as they are the first line of defence against online threats.
Understanding the Threat
Cyber-attacks come in various forms, from phishing emails to malware infections and social engineering tactics. According to recent studies, a significant number of data breaches are caused by human error or negligence. Employees might click on malicious links, share sensitive information inadvertently, or fall victim to social engineering scams, putting your organisation’s data at risk.
