What is security awareness?

In the refreshed edition of the Exploring Information Security (EIS) podcast, I talk to Amanda Berlin AKA @Infosystir about security awareness. 

Amanda was charged with setting up a security awareness program for her company from scratch. Setting up a security awareness program is hard work, making it effective is even harder, but Amanda rose to the challenge and came up with some creative ways to help fellow employees get a better handle on security.

In this interview we cover:

  • What is security awareness?
  • How a security awareness program should be implemented.
  • What does an effective security program look like?
  • How do you measure the effectiveness of a security awareness program
