Every business’s employees can benefit from security awareness training. It will teach your employees to watch out for phishing emails, spearphishing attacks, and other cyber attacks that could threaten your network. When your employees are trained to recognize cyber threats, they can stay vigilant and help you protect your network.
How Security Awareness Training Helps Your Organization
You can put all the electronic security measures in place to protect your network, but that could all be for nothing if your employees have no security training. By implementing any security education, training, or awareness program to help them recognize threats, they could open links and attachments to phishing emails. They could also accidentally install malware on their computer, putting your network at risk. When you make cyber security training available to your employees, they have the chance to educate themselves and protect both their individual devices and your business’s network.

Social Engineering
Recognizing Phishing Emails and Social Engineering
Social engineering is when scammers and hackers use deception to trick your network users into revealing confidential or personal information. Phishing emails are the most common type of social engineering tactic, and your employees should watch out for them. Here are some simple phishing prevention methods:
- Check the URL link in the email. Phishing emails contain links the scammers want you to click so they can access your private information. Often, they will post a link with a URL that’s close to the URL of a legitimate company but just slightly different, like go.ogle.com or tar-get.com. If the URL looks off, do not click that link!
- Double-check the sender’s email address. Sometimes, scammers will disguise a phishing email as a message from a C-level executive or other high-ranking member of your company. Look at the email closely. If the email address does not look like other official email addresses in your company, don’t touch that message!
