Methodological approach to security awareness program

Tasevski, Predrag
CyberSecurity for the Next Generation 2013 Conference, 10-12 December 2013, Milano, Italy

Currently, humans coupled with the socio-technical aspect can be either the strongest
or the weakest link in any information security, and the key in security lies in delivering
awareness training through short and effective online videos, whereby the participator
can gain knowledge on security. Our aim, therefore, is to develop innovative
solutions to deliver an interactive cybersecurity awareness program, where the main
goal is to enhance information on security awareness and knowledge in organizations,
schools, nations, homes etc. The syllabus that we present consists of a unique
systematic approach divided into three target groups: basic, advance and management.
Also we present a different method in measuring the knowledge of each participant,
and compare it to the base-line survey carried out during the registration. Our
results show the participant's awareness level of knowledge. By implementing this
program in private and public organizations, governments, schools and universities
will lead to the improvement of IT security awareness levels in the everyday use of
computers, mobile phones, online banking, and social networking - both at home and
in the workplace.
