Cyber security training for your employees can be fun and engaging
Cyber security training
India Inc. is spending more and more on cyber security each year.
However, despite increasing cyber security budgets, organisations still lack confidence when it comes to addressing critical aspects related to Information Security Awareness breaches or cyber threats or virus attacks.
Economic Times conducted a survey called “Path to Cyber Resilience: Sense, Resist, React”, which received responses from 1,735 global C-suite executives, including 124 CXOs from India.
The ET Survey results indicated the following:
− 69% of Indian respondents reported an increase in their cyber security budgets over the last 12 months
− Nearly 75% of the respondents expect budgets to increase further over the next year.
− 75% of the Indian respondents say that their cyber security function does not fully meet the organisation's needs, despite the increased investments.
The above findings are in line with global trends, where more than 50% of respondents reported a lack of confidence in cyber security despite increased spends.
An overwhelming majority of the respondents claimed that their biggest concern regarding cyber security was their employees’ carelessness and lack of knowledge while accessing online functions. This has led to many companies investing significant amounts in employee training programs for cyber security.
However, the main issue still remains on the absorption, retention and application of such knowledge by employees in real time, with every little action they undertake online.
The need of the hour is an innovative approach to training employees on cyber security.
In order to ensure that your employees religiously practice cyber security measures, an approach that blends quality content with cognitive learning and creativity will be most effective.
For more than a year now, iRealities has been silently working in the area of blending cyber security content with innovative learning experiences to create bespoke cyber security / Information Security training programs for some of the largest companies in India.
