AwareGO | Insider Risk Awareness: Protect Sensitive Data... Even From Your Friends

Описание: September is Insider Risk Awareness Month. To do our part we are publishing our insider risk awareness and training videos for free. If you or someone you know could benefit from added awareness on insider risk feel free to watch and share this video.

If your organization is looking for high-quality content and videos to help raise awareness among employees and minimize risk, please visit www.awarego.com to find out more about our cybersecurity solutions and Human Risk Assessment.

Insider risk usually refers to employees who willingly or accidentally leak data or cause a security breach, but this can also happen because we fail to include our friends and family in our security measures.

Malicious intent is not needed for a friend or a relative to become an insider risk. They can simply learn something of value from listening to the employee, or by looking at a computer screen or printouts while visiting. They might not even know that the information is confidential or that they are putting their loved one’s workplace at risk.

Friend-related insider risk is greater when working from home. Our friends, whom we’d like to think are trustworthy, have easy access to our homes. If we are working on confidential documents on our computers or printouts, it could be easy for them to get information about our business or clients that they shouldn’t have.

Make sure that confidential documents and data are in a safe place when your friends come to visit you at home or at work.
