IT & Technical Staff Need More Training, Not Less
There is a common misconception that IT and technical staff "know about security awareness" and that they should should simply take the same training that all other employees take. However, those with privileged access are often targeted more than a standard user. A recent trend is conducting training for these roles being monthly or quarterly with microcontent rather than the old-fashioned once per year method. With this in mind, you will notice we are highlighting two new pieces of training content for IT staff, bringing the total for these individuals with privileged access to 85 pieces of content in the ModStore. Look for more to be released in the coming months as we keep content fresh for this important group.
