Potential course benefits, the why 

Internal campaigns foster a culture of security awareness within the organisation, where security is prioritised and integrated into daily operations, rather than viewed as an afterthought.
By educating employees about security threats and best practices, internal awareness campaigns help mitigate the risk of security breaches, data leaks, and other incidents.
Increased awareness among employees leads to better adherence to security policies and procedures, enhancing the overall security posture of the organisation.
Educated employees are more likely to recognise suspicious behavior, such as phishing emails or unauthorised access attempts, and report them promptly, allowing for timely intervention and mitigation.
Awareness campaigns help employees recognize the value of sensitive information and understand their role in safeguarding it, reducing the likelihood of data breaches and leaks.
Proactive internal security awareness initiatives may result in cost savings by reducing the cost requirement for outside consultants and internal time to manage the contractual process.
Security awareness training empowers employees to take an active role in protecting themselves and the company against threats, boosting morale and job satisfaction.
