Security5
Certification for Knowledge Workers
‘Security’ is a buzz word that is
catching up with diverse industry verticals relying
on computing systems to keep the operations and
business wheels moving. Today, average office
goers sign an ‘Acceptable Use Policy’
that is part of ‘Corporate Security Policies’
and are responsible for any misuse and damage
caused on computing resources.
Several companies offer in-house training to
raise the security awareness of its employees,
while others prefer knowledgeable workers who
have acquired security related credentials. However,
there is a discernable need for knowledge workers
who know the basics of security. These employees
bring greater value to the workplace in terms
of better productivity and higher efficiency.
There are lesser downtimes and security lapses
by employees and hence greater cost savings and
profits.
Do these employees need to know how to architect
a security policy or understand complex firewall
rules? No, they do not.
What today’s knowledge workers need to bring
in a better tomorrow is the ‘Alphabet Soup
of Security’ – the basic core knowledge
to distinguish between the legitimate and the
malevolent. They need to be armed with knowledge
that can complement the system administrator’s
security safeguards and the chief security officer’s
security architecture for the corporation.
These knowledge workers are not confined to
the corporate space alone. They are knowledgeable
parents who can guide their children safely in
cyberspace, the knowledgeable citizen who can
safely use e-governance resources and the knowledgeable
freshman who can help protect intellectual property
on the net.
If you are someone who banks online, pays utility
bills online, shops online, have children chatting
online, downloads shareware and games, communicates
over email, subscribes to a broadband connection
or someone who uses a computer system at work
/home, then you need to have Security 5 training
to help you guard your information assets.
Identity theft, credit card fraud, online banking
Phishing scams, virus and backdoors, email hoaxes,
sex offenders lurking online, loss of confidential
information and hackers are some of the threats
you will face on a daily basis. Are you prepared
to face them and defend yourself?
Secure yourself with Security 5 training. Take
control and remain in control of your information
resources.
