As the devices and systems we use to conduct our businesses, maintain our health, and live our everyday lives continue to become more connected, the risk of cyber-attacks targeting these tools is on the rise.

As a variety of threats loom in today’s digital landscape, it has become increasingly crucial for organizations to upskill their employees to respond effectively to security threats.
By investing in employee training programs, organizations can improve their overall security posture, minimize risks, and protect their assets from cyber attacks. A well-trained workforce can also help to identify potential vulnerabilities and mitigate risks before they become major issues, which can save time and resources in the long run.
But where should organizations begin with these trainings? Can employees be expected to navigate this complex system? How CISOs and other security leaders emphasize the importance of upskilling to stakeholders?
