It is very important that not only your information security management is up to international standards but also your employees as well as your stakeholders have adequate cybersecurity training. 

From a fake Whatsapp message claiming that he’s the CEO of the organisation who forgot the password for a service to a phishing email that seems like you received from a supplier or a colleague, digital threats don’t always come as sophisticated hacker attacks.

According to a recent survey by Hayes Connor Solicitors, 1 in 5 workers who work from home never received any training on cybersecurity.
