*** A Cyber Security Awareness Training Program for employees is the single, most important factor in preventing cyber-attacks in the workplace. Our constantly evolving Security Awareness Training Program and Simulated Email Campaigns help to create a human firewall for your company by keeping staff trained, prepared and aware of the latest scams affecting businesses across the country.Our fully managed program includes the training, testing, phishing, analysing and re-training of staff in a comprehensive, cost-effective manner - with full reporting of progress back to management.Phishing and social engineering are the number one security threats affecting business today with the resulting data breaches and ransom-ware attacks having devastating effects. Even with the best technology protecting your network, many businesses are discovering that if their users aren't adequately trained to defend against these attacks, results can be catastrophic. This is where our Security Awareness Training comes into play, as research proves training and testing users can reduce cyber-attacks by up to 95%.*** In 2016, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was approved by the European Parliament and is the most important change to Data Protection law in 20 years, applying standards to ANY business around the world that holds EU data.This EU compliance regulation will have a far reaching impact for organisations across the globe. The primary objective of the GDPR is to give citizens back control of their personal data - and to harmonize previous and other data protection regulations throughout the EU.At Tech Guard, we can help you become compliant with GDPR from a Cyber Security perspective, through not only our Security Awareness Training but our backups, disaster recovery, IT continuity and data protection expertise.The depth and scope of the GDPR as well as the amount of collaboration required means companies need to start planning for compliance now.
