July 2022 Client Profile

Client Profile

Veronica is preparing a cyber security training program for her employees. What are some of the crucial topics she should include?


First, emphasize employees’ responsibilities to protect company information and reporting procedures if an employee’s computer becomes infected by a virus or is operating outside its norm (e.g., unexplained errors, running slowly, changes in desktop configurations, etc.). In such cases, employees should immediately report the incident to the IT team so they can investigate and mitigate the threat.

Then, teach employees how to select and save strong passwords and show staffers how to recognize scams, prevent data theft and know not to respond to emails they do not recognize.


Prevent installation of unlicensed software on any company computer. Unlicensed software downloads could make the company susceptible to malicious software downloads that can attack and corrupt company data.


Client Profile is based on a hypothetical situation. The solutions discussed may or may not be appropriate for you.
