Security Awareness Training
Organized education for employees about cybersecurity best practices and threats. The goal is to make your team aware of common attacks (like phishing, social engineering, or unsafe web browsing) and teach them how to recognize and avoid them.
Good security awareness training is ongoing and teaches you how to act securely, not just not just what the risks are.
In an SMB with no full-time security staff, training everyone to be a "human firewall" is vital. It might cover things like how to create a strong password, how to spot a suspicious email, what to do if you think your computer is infected, etc.
Over time, effective awareness programs can foster a culture of vigilance, where employees report potential threats (like a strange email) instead of falling victim to them. Remember, even expensive security technology can be undone by a single mistaken click from an unaware employee, so investing in training pays off by addressing that human element of risk
