Well-designed IS security policies and professionally implemented security architectures cannot by themselves assure the security of your information assets. While security threats are increasing by leaps and bounds, security professionals are few and far between.

People are the weakest links and the strongest defence in securing the information assets of any organisation. While information security touches every major aspect of operations, insufficient awareness and understanding of security is a major cause that undermines security.

Education cannot stop at the IT manager — it needs to extend to all users as they use networked services to transact, as also the policy maker who needs to discuss and decide on business extensions.

To protect the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of Information in highly networked environments, each person must understand his/her roles and responsibilities. Awareness through training helps users change their behaviour and enables individual accountability.

SecureSynergy's IS Security courses are designed to create awareness amongst users, enhance skill sets amongst IT and security professionals, educate IT managers and top administrators about IS security and information assurance.

Training Methodology
Our training courses combine lecture style training and hands-on experience of the software/technologies under study through our CISAT (Centre for Information Security and Assurance Technologies) security simulation lab. Our training goes beyond the class-room approach and is highly interactive in order to leverage your personnel's understanding of their operational environment and integrate it with our specialist skills in the area of information systems security.

The courses include appropriate case-studies, live demonstration and use of relevant tools to familiarise participants with information security principles and structured audit methodologies. Our training methodology focuses on making the participants aware about the dynamic IT environment and the associated information security vulnerabilities and threats. The live demonstration of security tools will make the participants aware of the configuration of these tools to protect their information systems. Training is conducted at the client site or through our Authorised Training Provider (ATP) network.

Deliverables
IS Security courses for end users, IT policy makers, senior management and technical implementers. and courses for network management, troubleshooting, analysis.
