Training is strategic now

Rickard Hagenstam, COO for Readynez continues to explain, that the days of random course investments are gone. Training is much more strategic now. Customers are not just in the market for skills, they want the right skills from the best provider and they want to be able to trust the outcome and document ROI and how their investments fit in with general strategies.

3 Tips to get prepared

The requirement for all of us to face the enemy. Acknowledge the threat and prepare for attacks. Implement security basics such as policies, training and awareness, monitoring and most of all frequent backups and plans for restoration of systems in case of a failure. Preparing for ransomware should involve business continuity, risk management and security monitoring. There are many factors that may lead to a ransomware attack but it is probably impossible to address them all.

Facilities - Latest resources, technology and programs for all our candidates.

Culture - Educate and create a security culture.

Plan - Address communications with clients, employees, suppliers, media and regulatory bodies.
