▤ Summary

In this new blog, guest author Nick Wilding from RESILIA® Cyber Resilience looks at the increasing role Learning and Development has to play strengthening the critical human factor in keeping digital systems safe with cybersecurity training. Think long term and design a user education and awareness programme that constantly weaves cybersecurity into the culture and behaviours of your organisation. It’s all about making sure we are providing our people with the appropriate digital skills that will instill and sustain the right behaviours across our workforce…whether you’re in the boardroom or on the frontline…on a continuing and engaging basis. The challenge remains how we can truly engage our workforce so they feel they have the know-how, confidence and motivation to do the right thing at the right time in the face of growing and ever-changing cyber threats.
