Overview

Enabling employees to be proactive in sensitive data protection through effective data security training

Data privacy and data protection have become front-and-center issues around the world as individuals demand more control of their personal information and organizations face more significant information security threats and risks. And with more people working remotely, it’s more critical than ever to ensure that employees understand the rules and guidelines involved with data usage and data protection. The more informed and aware employees are, the less likely a costly data incident or breach may occur.

Data privacy focuses on how personal information is collected and used. Information security focuses on keeping all kinds of nonpublic information and systems safe. The consequences for data breaches, not properly protecting personal data and violating data privacy laws and regulations can be severe. These consequences can involve fines, damage to an organization’s reputation, and loss of customer trust.

Why Train Employees?

Training employees on how to properly use and protect sensitive data, while also avoiding threats is a key element of an information security compliance program. When you raise employee awareness on security risks and convey the importance of asking questions and reporting concerns, data and security breaches are less likely to occur. Training helps keep organizations in compliance with data protection laws while fostering trust with employees, clients, customers, partners and communities.
