Security Awareness Training (AGGOVSEC001)

You are here: Home / Training / Security Awareness Training (AGGOVSEC001)

With a common goal of optimum security levels amongst all your staff, the organisation becomes almost uncompromisable. However, without providing annual security awareness training the risk of indifference creeping in rises within a workplace.

Staff that are inadequately trained in security or careless actions can lead to loss of revenue, reputational damage, loss of competitive advantage and legal cost to name a few.

Studies show that with annual security awareness training the likelihood of an incident can be significantly reduced, providing your staff with the tools they need to identify and report threats.

This course will provide your organisation’s staff with the knowledge, skill and practical experience they need to help reduce the likelihood of security incidents occurring within the workplace.

Benefits

  1. All staff within your organisation will be aware of the organisation’s security culture, security policies and procedures including the roles they play which will help reduce the prevalence of security incidents and the associated cost.
  2. This course will provide awareness to all staff of the importance of reporting incidents and suspicious behaviours, and how maintaining or improving the quality of reports assists to enhance the protection of people, property and critical assets.

Pre Requisites

None

Who Should Attend

  • Organisational Executives
  • Managers and Supervisors
  • Frontline Staff

  4. Physical Security – Understanding the requirement to protect valuable assets through basic lock-up procedures and the layered security approach.
  5. Information Security – Protecting your organisation and client’s information and intellectual property from unauthorised access, data breach requirements and the use of a clear desk policy.
  6. Creating and Securing Passwords – How to create a strong password, things not to do to ensure your password stays protected and tools that can assist you.
  7. Overseas Travel – Protecting your organisational interests while travelling overseas with robust travel policies for business and personal travel.
  8. Personnel Security – Personal safety and security measures for your staff to ensure a safe work environment both while working in your facility or in the field.
  9. Staff Separation – This section will identify strategies that can be used to protect intellectual property when staff leave the organisation.
  10. Incident Reporting – Identifying reportable incidents and suspicious behaviours that must be reported and the information required to improve security procedures and reduce repeats.

Teaching Strategies & Approaches to Learning

This course will provide all staff with an understanding of the importance of security within your organisation with real-world examples of current threats and security incidents.

These examples will be provided through the use of case studies, audio-visual snippets, quizzes and practical workshops, and will offer best practice guidance for ensuring the adherence to security policies and procedures and knowledge of how to maintain updated awareness of current security trends.
