Avinash Gidugu:

Security education within organization needs to be properly managed according to the policies decided by all the stakeholders. It is important to note that security training is needed to avoid potential data loss and prevent any losses for the company. Frequently revisiting the security teachings is also necessary to make the workers understand the importance of each aspect of the security. To keep the training sessions understandable, they should be only related to the employee's role in the organization.

Employees working with sensitive data like financial data should know more about the chances of noting the data down on a paper and taking it home or email security threats like email phishing. And employees that work more hands on with machinery should keep in mind to be always aware of their surroundings and also be careful and not allow unauthorized people into the workplace. Trainers should also be well versed with the security concerns faced by company.

The training should include a clear specification and descriptions of the potential threats that the employees susceptible to and the descriptions and hierarchical ways to approach when faced with the threat.

The steps must be outlined well enough to be remembered and executed when necessary. It is also important to be noted that employees should always be asked to inform the encounter to the management as soon as possible. The number of steps needed to deal with the encounter should be as less and simple as possible to avoid any confusion and complications that might arise.
