Security Awareness involves educating individuals within an organisation about potential cyber threats, safe online practices, and the importance of maintaining a security-conscious mindset. Security Awareness programs aim to empower employees to recognise and mitigate cybersecurity risks, reducing the likelihood of falling victim to social engineering attacks such as phishing or malware. Effective security awareness efforts encompass regular training sessions, simulated phishing exercises, and the dissemination of relevant information to foster a culture of cybersecurity vigilance.
