Episode 16: Security Awareness and Training Programs

Even the best technical defenses can fail if employees don’t understand their security responsibilities. This episode focuses on the development and delivery of effective security awareness and training programs. We explore how to tailor content for different roles, choose the right delivery formats, and measure effectiveness through assessments and behavioral monitoring. You’ll also learn how awareness programs support compliance and reduce risks such as phishing, social engineering, and insider threats.
