issues

An organisation will have a variety of training needs in the area of security, depending on the balance of business priorities versus exposure to risk. At the most basic level this will certainly involve a minimum level of awareness amongst employees of the issues, and basic measures to be taken to ensure the overall security of people, property, and data. This most basic level is a minimum requirement of any organisation to meet its obligations to employees, shareholders and customers, and the demands of Corporate Governance.

Beyond the basic level of training, there is often the need for more specific training of individuals. This can range from senior management responsibilities, to deeper technical based training of security professionals, who wish to acquire new knowledge or skills, refresh existing skills, or just keep up to date with current advances.
