Understand Security Awareness

Security issues can happen much more easily when security awareness is lacking in an organization. Security awareness is both a simple and extremely complex topic. It’s something that’s often thought about in the context of IT, but it could also be applied to anyone working for any organization—even outside of the realm of technology.
