St. Louis, MO-IL (1888PressRelease)
July 18, 2007 - Parameter Security is empowering banks and credit unions by arming their frontlines of defense – their employees – against hackers. Because employees are on the frontline everyday they can be an institution’s greatest security vulnerability OR greatest security asset. But, do employees really understand the security threats they encounter daily?
Parameter’s Security Awareness Training explains current security threats such as how and why hackers target employees, ways Trojans or Phishing emails can bypass your network’s security defenses, the use of personal information to devise an attack as well as using an institution’s lack of security to the hacker’s advantage. Such security awareness trainings also detail best practices when it comes to defending organizations against hackers, how to be on the offense and what to look for so employees remain alert at all times.
“Hackers are lazy, they use the easiest means to gain access to your network which is you and your employees,” says Renee Chronister, vice president of Parameter Security. “With Parameter’s Security Awareness Training, financial institutions can bolster their security awareness by educating and empowering employees to become human firewalls.”
Parameter will offer its first Webinar on Wednesday, August 15 from 12-1 p.m. Central. To sign-up for Parameter’s Security Awareness Training Webinar in August or for more information about on-site security awareness training, contact Parameter Security at 314.442.0472.
