Security Awareness Communications

The success of your security mission hinges in great part on your ability to get the general staff to embrace and participate in the security policies and procedures that have been established to protect THEM.

Are you taking advantage of the full range of communications techniques available to create security awareness throughout your organization -- from electronic to word-of-mouth?

Have you established a security intranet site that is so compelling that the staff WANTS to visit it? Are you humanizing corporate security for new employees with orientation sessions?

Are your security priorities continually being emphasized through informal talks with departments, training sessions and satisfaction surveys – or is your security staff cloistered in some anonymous office?

Listen as our panel of veteran corporate security professionals offers detailed guidance on established and innovative security awareness building techniques and shares which approaches have proven successful and which have ineffective.

You get practical ideas for improving the effectiveness of your company-wide security communications program, including:

• Creating a security intranet site that is “must see” for employees thanks to its timeliness and relevance, and online complaint forms and satisfaction surveys.
• Employing the tools of the marketing industry to create a security “brand” or image within your company.
• Implementing or improving feedback mechanisms, such as hotlines, that encourage employee interaction
• Designing orientation sessions that get new employees on security’s side right from the start.
• Refreshing mainstream channels like newsletters, intra-company e-mail, posters and small-group meetings – to create a more compelling message.
