What is Security Awareness Training? 

Security awareness training is a strategy used by companies to mitigate risks by educating employees about good practices and common online “traps” set by cyber criminals.

Successful security awareness programs have...

  • Engaging, immersive training that changes human behavior
  • Interactive and team-focused training to drive learning, retention
  • Built-in gamification, “champion” programs, and incentives for employees to mitigate risks
  • An effective, ongoing security culture that celebrates human risk management
  • The ability to measure the impact of training to show its impact on risk mitigation

Most security programs fail because...

  • They consist of off-the-shelf, generic, one-size-fits-all, check-the-box compliance training
  • It takes too long for users to complete and they don’t retain the information
  • There’s no hands-on or group experience that helps them relate the information to their own lives
  • It’s a one-and-done annual “mandate” that happens once annually

Only Living Security delivers...

  • Live-action, plot-driven videos, puzzles, and relatable vignettes that educate
  • Gamification and leader boards to build visibility and incentivize risk mitigation
  • Monthly turnkey content on security topics that keep security top of mind
  • Available cyber escape rooms that create a fun group experience users won’t forget

 

Where Security Awareness and Training Programs Fall Short

Though organizations spend a lot of money on technology to stop cybersecurity breaches, the majority of them involve some kind of human action, intentional or not. Organizations mandate annual check-the-box compliance training, but it does little to actually change human behavior. 

Lack of Relevance for Employees

Most security awareness training consists of a single one-size-fits-all component. Problem is, every organization has different types of workers, and individuals play roles that may increase their ability to impact security. Industry- and role-based training provide relevant experiences, aiding retention. 

Limited Engagement

Usually, the IT Security Manager mandates once-a-year compliance training, with a goal to “check the box” rather than “enable employees to secure company data and assets.” This short-sighted approach can have a major negative impact on the organization if an employee causes a breach.

Hard To Measure Impact

With completion-only goals, organizations lose the real value of training: measuring the impact on the organization as a whole. Did behavior change? Is the company more secure? Most training platforms cannot provide these deeper metrics and, therefore, never realize the full benefits of cybersecurity awareness training. 

Time-Consuming for Employees

One-size-fits-all annual compliance training impedes productivity because it trains vigilant users the same as uneducated ones. Such training takes hours, is boring because it’s not relevant to the user, and feels mandated, so it’s no wonder employees don’t take it seriously, opting to just “get through” the training.
