Frequently asked questions
What is cyber security awareness?
Cyber security awareness refers to the knowledge, understanding, and consciousness of individuals or organisations regarding potential cyber security threats, best practices, and protective measures. It involves being informed about the various types of cyber threats, such as phishing, malware, social engineering, and data breaches, and understanding how these threats can impact personal or organisational security. Cyber security awareness also includes recognising the importance of implementing strong security measures, such as using complex passwords, regularly updating software, being cautious of suspicious emails or links, and practicing safe online behavior. By promoting cyber security awareness, individuals and organisations can enhance their ability to identify and respond to potential threats, ultimately reducing the risk of falling victim to cyber attacks.
Why do businesses need cyber awareness?
Businesses need cyber awareness for several reasons. Firstly, cyber threats and attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and prevalent. By having cyber awareness, employees can recognise and respond to potential threats, such as phishing emails or social engineering attempts, thereby reducing the risk of falling victim to cyber attacks. Secondly, cyber awareness helps in maintaining data security and privacy. Employees who are aware of best practices for handling sensitive information, using secure passwords, and following proper data protection protocols can help safeguard valuable company and customer data. Additionally, cyber awareness promotes a culture of security within the organisation, fostering a proactive approach to cyber security and ensuring that everyone understands their role in protecting the business from potential threats. Ultimately, cyber awareness is crucial for mitigating risks, minimising the impact of cyber attacks, and maintaining the trust and reputation of the business.

What is the cause of most cyber attacks on businesses?
Employees are at the heart of every organisation, playing a key role in keeping you secure and compliant.

Over 90% of security incidents are now caused by cybercriminals targeting employees.
