Internet Security Awareness Training

<a href="/facts/Internet_security/LeTm8Wx4">Internet Security</a> Awareness Training (ISAT) is the training given to members of an organization regarding the protection of various information assets of that organization. ISAT is a subset of general <a href="/facts/Security_awareness/bW1qdt81">security awareness</a> training (SAT).
Even <a href="/facts/Small_and_medium-sized_enterprises/86CC7BvV">small and medium enterprises</a> are generally recommended to provide such training, but organizations that need to comply with government regulations (e.g., the <a href="/facts/Gramm%25E2%2580%2593Leach%25E2%2580%2593Bliley_Act/S3mRbuGp">Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act</a>, the <a href="/facts/Payment_Card_Industry_Data_Security_Standard/SLdbE4q0">Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard</a>, <a href="/facts/Health_Insurance_Portability_and_Accountability_Act/b40VtyEC">Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act</a>, <a href="/facts/Sarbox/pfYfkDD2">Sarbox</a>) normally require formal ISAT for annually for all employees. Often such training is provided in the form of online courses.

ISAT, also referred to as Security Education, Training, and Awareness (SETA), organizations train and create awareness of <a href="/facts/Information_security/horlrCln">information security</a> management within their environment. It is beneficial to organizations when employees are well trained and feel empowered to take important actions to protect themselves and organizational data. The SETA program target must be based on user roles within organizations and for positions that expose the organizations to increased risk levels, specialized courses must be required.
