Awareness training is key to a better security posture, according to ThriveDX 's newly-released “2022 Global Cybersecurity Awareness Training Study”,
A marked uptick in cybersecurity awareness programs across all industries in the last year has resulted in a higher level of security at a majority of enterprises.
However, just 42% reported involving their employees in security detection with the use of such measures as a Phishing Incident Button. It’s an important distinction as this type of engagement is known to further security by creating a virtual ‘human firewall’ and accelerating the reporting of potential threats.
The results of employee awareness efforts were impressive across the board with 19% reporting better awareness; 14% greater vigilance; 12% said they increased their human firewall; and 99% reporting an increase in corporate security. Ninety-six percent also noted a positive influence on their enterprise’s overall working atmosphere.
