In most organizations
the responsibility of network security has traditionally fallen
on the shoulders of the Network Administrator, along with adding
new users, deleting users, updating software, firewall monitoring,
password controls, intrusion detection, emergency response, software
rollout, and much more. While the Network Administrator plays a
key role, relying solely on the Network Administrator will simply
not get the job done. Everyone in the organization must be aware
of basic information security principles, and it is easier to accomplish
than you might think. Inexpensive, informative, an entertaining
courses are available to be taught right on your back yard. Here
is a sample of targeted courses designed to help your executives,
technical staff, or end users understand the risks and what they
can do protect your organizations critical information assets.
