Security Awareness For Dummies

Make security a priority on your team

Every organisation needs a strong security programme. One recent study estimated that a hacker attack occurs somewhere every 37 seconds. Since security programmes are only as effective as a team’s willingness to follow their rules and protocols, it’s increasingly necessary to have not just a widely accessible gold standard of security, but also a practical plan for rolling it out and getting others on board with following it. Security Awareness For Dummies gives you the blueprint for implementing this sort of holistic and hyper-secure programme in your organisation.

Written by one of the world’s most influential security professionals—and an Information Systems Security Association Hall of Famer—this pragmatic and easy-to-follow book provides a framework for creating new and highly effective awareness programmes from scratch, as well as steps to take to improve on existing ones. It also covers how to measure and evaluate the success of your programme and highlight its value to management.

• Customise and create your own programme
