User Awareness Training in Action

All of you know that I feel strongly that UA training has great value in keeping us more secure in our online and work network lives. I've caught flack from some for my hard line stance on it but this story just goes to show how effective it can be. I'll say it again, "a good information security program includes UA training and daily secure practices from the IT staff." The best part of this is that it was done in day to day life and not via classes and boring material. If all IT professionals practice security around their users, take time to talk to and explain secure practices to their users then this is what can happen. Rebecca Herold tells the story of awareness from her kids.
