Security Awareness for Executives & Technical Team

​​About the Training

Cyber security is not just a technology risk, but a business risk that impacts the entire ecosystem. An executive is the highest-value target to hunt, from a hacker’s perspective, Cyber attackers are not ignorant of this oversight. In fact, there’s a specific term for an attack that targets senior executives – whaling. Executives are targeted not only for the access and authority they have, but also because, in many cases, they are not the most well-informed on matters related to cybersecurity.

As security continues to grow in importance and becomes more key to business success, the idea is to prevent social engineering or other tactics that would offer an attacker access to their credentials. Considering the breach history that demonstrates that executives are specifically targeted, this is a concerning gap that organizations need to address proactively.
