Employee Training Is Vital For Commercial Cybersecurity

Business owners often think that they are out of sight and under the hackers’ radar. But this is not true. Small and medium businesses are increasingly being targeted by cyber criminals. 
 
In fact, 63% of cyber-attacks target Small/Medium businesses.  So small business owners cannot take cyber security lightly, and they should learn more and invest in better digital security.
 
The most important cyber-security practices that you must follow to be digitally safe is employee and management cyber security training.
 
Train Your Employees
Needless to say, your employees are the biggest source of vulnerability if you don’t train them in cyber-security best practices. Just imagine the risk of your employee leaving work phone/laptop/tablet unattended in a public place. It can do a significant damage to your business.
 
So you should educate your employees on cyber-security. Here are some tips:
 
• Have regular cyber security training for everyone in the business.
• Clearly communicate the impact of a cyber incident on your business.
• Make cyber-security everyone’s responsibility.
• Train your employees on how to respond to a cyber attack
 
Remember, your employees are the strongest line of defense against cyber attacks. So you should make them better prepared by ensuring they have good basic skills.
 
A cyber security training programme we would recommend is Go-Cyber, which is a sensibly priced and very effective training programme – please contact us for more information.
