Managing Human Risk with Cybersecurity Training and Awareness
Thursday, November 3, 2:30pm-3:15pm
The 2022 Verizon Data Breach Incident Report shows that humans are involved in breaches more than 80% of the time. Whether that involves someone clicking on a phishing link, or an employee reusing the same password in multiple places, cybersecurity training and awareness can help manage this "human risk" by teaching people how to protect themselves and the university. In 2021, the Cybersecurity Training and Awareness team in Technology Services launched required cybersecurity training for Urbana-Champaign and Springfield employees. Learn how our team laid the groundwork for the successful launch of required cybersecurity training and how our training and awareness program continues to address human risk, now and in the future.
