Security Awareness Training

The importance of training your own people on security awareness is often lost in the shuffle when deciding what security solutions and products to buy.  This is interesting based on the recent trend in information security as the client-side (human) attack is more prevalent than ever.  Most organizations have beefed up there network and perimeters, attackers are attacking people in order to break the infrastructure.  Security Awareness Programs and Training help diminish the overall security risk to an organization by integrating precautions into people’s business decisions.  At MAD Security we have made security awareness “sticky” for employees of many organizations.  We have done this through entertaining and informative videos to lecture based presentations as well as hands-on seminars.  At MAD we have a unique security awareness solution for any organization, ask to see some of our past examples and metrics.
