Hope to see you there...

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Keeping your employees engaged with security concepts using microlearning. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

If you've ever taken an hour-long, online compliance training course, you'll know why they aren't the best way for employees to learn. Microlearning is an approach where learning is done in smaller, digestible chunks. It has a lot of advantages over the "big bang" style of training, especially when its important for staff to be learning and retaining knowledge, such as for cyber security awareness. In this live panel session, we'll explore some of the best practices and pitfalls of microlearning within security awareness and human risk management programs. Here are some of the questions we'll be discussing: 1. What are the benefits of microlearning for employees and cyber security managers? 2. What are the best ways to organize microlearning? 3. What are the advantages of using different formats of microlearning for different purposes? We'll have a group of security and risk specialists who will share their tips on how to include microlearning effectively. Everyone is welcome.

Every organization has employees and families whose lives outside of work involve interactions that can put them at risk. Whether they are school aged children, seniors, aboriginal people, struggling artists, involved in abusive relationships, etc., there is a moral need to help them protect their self-interests against malicious actors. This session will explore how security awareness managers can make a difference in the lives of their organization's employees, and of their extended communities. Here are some questions we'll discuss: 1) What do you define as a vulnerable person? 2) How can you learn about the most important risks faced outside the office? 3) What are some good ways to provide assistance to vulnerable individuals? Our live panel and audience will share their views during this session. This event will be hosted on Zoom, and on the Cyber Security Awareness Forum community website, where live chat will be active, as well as follow-up discussions.

Working in cyber security can wear you down. Even if you love the work.

The results of your good work rarely show as a big red, flashing sign that says "You succeeded". Sometimes you wonder if anyone even notices.

But when you can speak to others who are facing the same issues in other organizations, you realize that the work you are doing is really important.

One day, you'll likely see a news story where another organization just like yours fell victim to an attack, and you realize that what you've done makes it less likely to happen in your organization.

That's when you understand the value of what you are contributing.

Come and join the Cyber Security Awareness Forum live panel discussion today, and hear from others in the security awareness industry who have dealt with similar challenges to the ones you're facing.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: The pros and cons of gamification in security awareness. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Because employees often have many reasons to disengage with security awareness training, gamification can provide motivation for them to participate.

This will be a live panel discussion, with a primary focus on how gamification can be used to drive desired behaviors in a security awareness program. Here are a few questions we will discuss: 1) What are the benefits of gamification in a training environment? 2) How can you show the value of using gamification to management? 3) How can you adapt gamification for various learning types?
