Stu's new company, KnowB4(?), previously mentioned, offers this service. From: Rankin, James R [mailto:kz2...@googlemail.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 8:17 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Computer safety and security best practices...
There was an online service somewhere that offered to send dodgy-looking scam or malware emails to your users and generate a report based on their responses. May help with the education process. Sorry I can't dig the link up, am onsite at a client who won't allow me internet access :-( Sent from my SR-71 Blackbird ________________________________ From: ed ziots <ezi...@hotmail.com> Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:45:06 -0500 To: NT System Admin Issues<ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> ReplyTo: "NT System Admin Issues" <ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Subject: RE: Computer safety and security best practices... I am not sure if this has been said before, but frequent reminders with rewards ( maybe corporate recognition for the group that scores highest on the computer safety exam) or a ice social, or other little small treats that reward those do embrace what you are trying to get across. Also followed the motto praise in public, punish in private... Also a nice friendly remind is putting the IS policy on the web page that is returned when your users go to disallowed content, and then have them justify why they need that content which goes to there manager. That will stop alot of the here click on this. ( That and reading your email in rich text or text only format, not HTML) Also training your users on how to spot and report phishing attacks, etc etc. Should all base it on what threats you have experienced ( phishing, pharming, spyware/malware etc etc) and what measures you have put in place to limit that risky behaviour. Rinse wash, repeat. Z Edward E.

I feel like many of the malware infections I come across could have been easily avoided if the end user was just a little better informed. I've wanted to put together some tutorials for staff here at the school and also for my clients, that would help them to be more security conscious while browsing the web, etc. I already have a quite a few ideas for topics to cover and some online resources that I'm looking at too, but would like to make sure I don't leave anything out. I'd like to make this training mandatory for school staff but of course clients would have to be made to see the value of it. Do you guys already do training like this for end users or do you point them to any online materials?
