About this e-learning course:

This e-learning course recognises that information security awareness starts with the individual. This course will help employees understand their organisations information and compliance risks, thereby reducing the organisations exposure to security failures.

This course is targeted at all employees in an organisation that are involved in processing information, using Information Technology in their daily job or who use the Internet as a means of conducting business. The course is not a technical course and is not meant for system administrators.

Information security awareness training offers significant benefits:

Reduces the likelihood of human error by familiarising non-technical staff with security awareness policies and procedures
Reduces the likelihood of a data breach as a result of a human error - organisations can suffer considerable financial losses and reputation damage if confidential data is compromised
Ensures your information assets are better protected and increases customer and employee confidence in your organisation
Is in line with ISO27001, the information security standard, and ISO27002, the Code of Practice – clause 8.2.2 of ISO 27002 sets out, it is now imperative that security issues are addressed at the employee level
Supports regulations such as the UK's Data Protection Act, HIPAA, GLBA, the EU Privacy Protection Directive and Canada's PIPEDA, all of which make it clear that organisations must ensure their employees are aware of privacy issues
