ABSTRACT

Anthony has provided thousands of staff with security awareness training and during this webinar, he will talk a little bit about what he learned and how anybody can implement a security awareness program.

ABSTRACT

Dr. Bonnie Henry, as BC’s Chief Medical Health Officer, has demonstrably saved tens of thousands of lives over the course of the pandemic. With the regular CoVID press briefings, she has also provided a MasterClass in effective communication of complex technical subjects. This reference provides real-world examples of the most significant points in designing and implementing an effective security awareness program. It also conclusively proves, with mathematical certainty, the importance of a security awareness training program.

BIOGRAPHY

Rob Slade had his booster shot on Boxing Day, and, besides, as an old antivirus researcher, Rob knows that there is no conclusive evidence that Omicron can transmit over Zoom, so you are probably safe to attend this (virtual) meeting. On the other hand, having lost Gloria, Rob’s emotional stability is probably worse than ever, so attend at your own risk. More information than anyone would want to know about Rob is available at http://fibrecookery.blogspot.com/
