Strengthen Your First-Line Cyber Defenses
With proactive security strategy measures like vulnerability management and security awareness training, you can empower your team with the vital knowledge to recognize external and internal threats while helping to ensure your systems stay secure and compliant.
The vast majority of successful cyberattacks rely on human error. A Standford University study found 88% of security breaches are the result of a human mistake.
Cyberattackers won't hesitate to capitalizing on these human-induced errors, such as security misconfiguration. And malicous actors prey on human behavior like compassion and emotion. To err is human, but with the right security training and solutions, you can catch or prevent those missteps before attackers exploit them. Creating and implementing the right cybersecurity training is one of the first steps to reducing the human error risk within your organization. Adding effective vulnerability scanning and management will go a step further, validating or identifying gaps in your network settings, hardware configurations, and software patches.
Minimize Human Risk Factors with Security Awareness Training (SAT)
Education and training are the best ways to temper the "employee mistake" effect on your security program. Security
Awareness Training (SAT) creates awareness around:
- phishing
- social engineering
- email security
- ransomware
- malware
- and even best practices of setting passwords.
Why You Need Vulnerability Management AND Security Awareness Training
Human error isn't just clicking a phishing link, being manipulated for information, or downloading malicious programs. It can be an unpatched system, skipping a software update, or connecting an unsecure device onto a company network. Easy mistakes can leave the door wide open for a cyberattack.
Fortra VM utilizes risk-based vulnerability management to evaluate those errors, prioritize how detrimental they are to your organization, offer remediation suggestions, and provide in-depth reporting for internal use or for compliance audits. Your team will be able to focus remediation efforts on the highest risk vulnerabilities without wasting time chasing the ones that may not affect your company. Reporting can measure the impact of remediation efforts to gauge their success, and maintain historical, in-depth reporting for security compliance standards.
