Security - The Human Factor

While technologies, such as antivirus software and encryption, can offer some protection against cyber crime, security breaches are most often the result of human error and carelessness. Improving information security within your organisation, therefore, has to encompass people and processes, as well as technology. Motivating your team and making them more aware of security concerns should be at the heart of your information security strategy. At the same time, the processes you have in place to address information security issues need to be straightforward and properly understood if you want your employees to adhere to them.
