That’s why you’ll find a lot of these security awareness training programs lacking in a big way. If you want to improve yours, then here’s a look at common mistakes. Once you go through this list, you can start modifying your programs to correct any errors or prevent potential issues that might come up.  Zero Consistency 

  2. Consistency is essential in security awareness training. Your company image and brand must be consistent. They must be reflective of your stand in things, for instance. That's one way to ensure excellent results from the programs. Your employees will know what you expect out of them. They won’t be left guessing about the direction of the training or what their goals are. By being consistent in everything you do, even in your training, you can orient and train new hires to ensure they’re effective in their roles and right for the job. This also means you need to be consistent with your efforts. If your programs are only held once a year or every few years, then you’re not being consistent.  Too Technical Technical knowledge is good. But if that’s the only thing your training has, then that could lead to a bored audience pretty quickly. Observe your employees. The last thing you want is to overwhelm them with complexity, so it’s best that you make up programs that are fun and engaging as well. That’s where fun cybersecurity training from pros comes in. Look for a company that offers training that’s fun while capable of

  3. addressing the gaps in your program.  Compliance Focus  Compliance matters. But it shouldn’t be the only deciding factor for you. If the goal of your training is to secure compliance instead of improving your security measures, you’ll fail. Don’t force your employees to go through that training. Instead, pick a program that’s well designed to let them know all about security. You want them to learn instead of going through the motions, so it’s important that you have a program that’s designed to improve their security awareness instead of just training them to meet compliance requirements.  WHO TO FOLLOW WHO TO FOLLOW Jennifer Winget Jennifer Winget Beatrix Jonathan Beatrix Jonathan tmr tmr Dismissing Feedback Riy? Mishr? Riy? Mishr? Putting together a security awareness training program for your team is a wise move for your organization. But it shouldn’t stop there. You need to pay attention to what your team members say, too. If they’re struggling or they don’t see the point of the program, you’ll need to take those comments into consideration. Modify your programs based on the feedback of your team. That’s one way to improve the training even more. 

  4. Being Boring  Providing a security awareness training program doesn’t mean that you need to bore your employees to death with details. If you do, even the best of your people won’t last very long. Instead, find a company that considers your target audience. Can they provide training that improves audience engagement? Then hire them for the job. fun cybersecurity training 2    Greatest Training E Greatest Training E… … Dec 09, 2021 12:25 MORE FROM AUTHOR MORE FROM AUTHOR
