Information Security

  • 20 Minutes
  • For all staff
  • jurisdiction UK

Loss or theft of commercially sensitive information can damage revenue, reputation and customer trust, and may bring fines or prosecution. This 20-minute refresher reminds staff why information security matters to the business, how and why information is classified, and how to maintain security when using the web, email and other electronic channels.

Security behaviour degrades between annual courses, and attackers rely on that. A short refresher keeps classification habits and email caution current without repeating the full course, which makes it practical to run more than once a year. For firms subject to DORA or regular client security assessments, a documented refresher cycle is increasingly what evidence of ongoing awareness actually means.
