• Legal costs

• Penalties for regulatory breaches

• Reputation management

Training is one of the best investments in security.

5. Increases Business Continuity

Employees trained in cybersecurity help to respond to cybersecurity incidents quickly.

6. Increases Customer's Trust

Customers today expect that businesses will safeguard their personal information.

It shows that a business is concerned about their security and privacy.

 Training should not be done only once.

Recommendations for training schedule:

• New hire orientation

• Awareness training quarterly

• Phishing training monthly

• Certification annually

• Newsletters on security topics
