IT Governance supports the National Cyber Security Awareness Month
/EINPresswire.com/ October see's the start of National Cyber Security Awareness Month, an initiative by the Department of Homeland Security. Its aim is to raise awareness amongst individuals and organizations about cyber security and increase the nations' resilience to cyber attack.
IT Governance Ltd, the global leader in ISO27001 information, standards, books and tools, supports the National Cyber Security Awareness Month by making a range of cyber security publications and other products available to organizations on its US website: www.itgovernanceusa.com.
Supporting the cyber security awareness initiative, IT Governance has launched a 'Stop. Think. Connect.' campaign in the USA. The company warns that employees should stop for a moment before they use the internet and take the time to understand the risks and learn how to spot them. The next important step is for staff to think. They need to take a moment to be certain the path ahead is clear. Watching for warning signs and considering how their actions online could impact their business, their personal data or their safety is really important. Finally, staff can connect and enjoy the internet with greater confidence, knowing they have taken the right steps to safeguard themselves, your staff and their business.
The information security experts form IT Governance recommend a few very useful products that can help organizations educate and protect themselves and their business.
The pocket guide 'Security: The Human Factor' looks at the challenges associated with information security, the consequences of failing to meet them and - most importantly - at the steps organizations can take to make themselves and their information more secure. The guide is invaluable for IT managers, information security officers and business executives (www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/2170.aspx).
The book 'CyberWar, CyberTerror, CyberCrime' details how best practices and standards can be used to combat cyber criminals and terrorists. Readers have described the book as a "good basis for a security roadmap", "well researched and well written" (www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/140.aspx).
A comprehensive range of other cyber security related publications including 'IT Induction and Information Security Awareness' (www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/238.aspx) and 'Ten Rules of Information Security for the Smaller Business' (www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/150.aspx) can be found on the company's website.
The Information Security Staff Awareness e-learning course from IT Governance has become very popular with US on the background of increased cyber attacks (www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/1101.aspx). It not only familiarizes the learners with the basics of information security, including security threats via emails, the Internet and at the workplace, but also introduces the learners to the policies on incident reporting and responses.
E-learning is a proven technique in educating staff in fundamental information security principles, and it has the capacity to enhance any organization's cyber security to protect it from falling prey to cyber attacks directed at stealing privileged business information.
One-year user licences can be purchased individually for just $70 each or in bulk at discounted prices, here www.itgovernanceusa.com/product/1101.aspx . For larger numbers of users, a customisable version of the course is available which enables clients to closely tie the e-learning content to their own procedures and culture. Organizations can make purchases with a purchase order either by telephone or by e-mail to servicecenter@itgovernanceusa.com.
