Start-up Security Mentor™, Inc. introduces an innovative approach to security awareness training, training that matches the way people learn and work. Pacific Grove, CA - March 21, 2008 - Seventy-nine percent of information security officers think human error is the root cause of information security failures, according to a 2007 Deloitte & Touche survey. No wonder security training and awareness was one of their top three information security initiatives for 2007. The problem is training may not be effective. Busy schedules, information overload, and long gaps between trainings can make it hard for employees to learn the security information they need. And even when they do, over time, the impact of training fades. Security Awareness in Your Inbox Every Week Now Security Mentor has a solution: brief, frequent and focused Security Awareness training. A series of engaging, interactive, rich media lessons are delivered through Security Mentor's website. Employees no longer have to remember to take training; they receive a weekly email linking them to their latest lesson. Because lessons are short and frequent, "Security Mentor Security Awareness Training keeps security at the forefront of your mind." said Marie White, Ph.D., a Security Mentor founder and defense industry security veteran. "Over time, it creates a culture of security in the company." Each lesson focuses on one specific subject, which allows employees to master the material in less than 7 minutes. The interactive multimedia content is engaging and supports different learning styles. A learning management system tracks and measures each person's progress through the lesson, enabling managers to know that employees received the information - and learned it.
