Cyber awareness knowledge checks
Cyber awareness knowledge checks are assessments designed to test individuals’ understanding of cybersecurity concepts and best practices. These knowledge checks cover topics such as password security, phishing awareness, data protection, safe browsing habits, and recognising potential cyber threats. These checks play a crucial role in promoting cybersecurity awareness and improving overall cyber habits to mitigate the risk of cyber attacks and data breaches.
VinciWorks’ cyber awareness training knowledge checks
Cyber security vigilance is more relevant than ever now with many staff working from home. VinciWorks has released four new short courses to help organisations test their staff’s cyber security knowledge. Knowledge checks consist of different scenarios to help employees understand which course of action to take in different situations. Feedback is given after each question is answered, allowing users to improve their knowledge while completing the assessment. A score is given at the end of each assessment, meaning users can easily establish how much they have yet to learn. We recommend knowledge checks are added to existing cyber security training plans as a refresher course.
The knowledge checks cover several areas of cyber security, including the basics, passwords, social engineering, and phishing.
Cyber security training knowledge checks
Some of the topics addressed:
- Common characteristics of various types of cyber crimes and how to spot them
- Understanding key terms and concepts
