Worried That Today's Culture of
Rapid Information Sharing is
Threatening the Security of Your Business Processes?

Turn Your Business Workflows From
Swiss Cheese Into Hard Candy
with training from
The Streetwise Security Awareness Program!

"Your presentation sheds light on subjects that related to everyone who touches a computer - I love that it is in "English" and easy to understand."

- J.O.

Learn how your business is coming under increasing attacks that are more and more difficult for technology to defend against by itself. That's what I call  Swiss Cheese" workflows and processes - easy for threats to slice through.

However, you and your co-workers can get your jobs done more securely and efficiently, by focusing on what's important to your business. This one-day course covers "Basic Information Security Awareness Guidelines" for anyone, both on the job, and at home, PLUS two brand new modules on "Social Networking and Internet Risks" and "The StreetWise Awareness Technique" (SWAT). These three sessions combined in to a one-day workshop show you how to transform your business processes from "Swiss Cheese" - something that's easily penetrated and exploited -  into "Hard Candy" that resists attack.


“Over 80 percent of data breaches, in some way, involve inside employees”

– Ponemon Institute 2008 Annual Study: Cost of Data Breaches

With the advances in technology usage in business, the human risk decision is rapidly becoming the “weakest link” in securing the quality and availability of most business processes. This training program fulfills an essential element of a balanced information security program.

In fact, one of the most significant findings in the Ponemon Instutite's 2008 report is that over 50% of businesses that had data breaches identified Training and Awareness programs as the most important investment in preventing future incidents.

Host Your Own 90 minute, or One-Day Streetwise Security Awareness "Perspective" Sessions

One of the best ways to get a glimpse into the world of security awareness is to host your own 60-90 minute Streetwise Security Awareness "Perspective" sessions. These sessions, designed for an audience of any size, provide a quick overview of  the common business risks from today's "Rapid Information Sharing" culture, and then dives deep into a specific topic such as Risks and Tips for Facebook, or Protecting Sensitive Information in a Mobile Workforce. These sessions let you start turning Swiss Cheese into Hard Candy, one business process at a time.

Attendees are typically surprised to learn valuable insights about risks they are facing every day, such as threats to business users from social networking websites, and how to deal with them.

IT Managers can learn why some kinds of data leakage can't be stopped by firewalls and web filters. And, they'll find out about resources that address their frustration with educating management and staff in ways that better leverage their time.

If you would like to have a training session in your facilities, please contact me at:

What is The Streetwise Security Zone?

The Streetwise Security Zone is a community for engaging individuals and managers to build a groundswell of support for working more securely through Governance by Graffiti - the ongoing process of staying up to date on security issues through short, non-technical articles, discussion forums, tools and multi-media tips. Because human risk decisions are now the weakest link in most organizations' security program, and there is a gap between policies and technical safeguards, there is a clear need to keep staff aware of risks and how they potentially affect the business.

What is The Streetwise Awareness Technique?

The Streetwise Awareness Technique is a 5-step process for systematically engaging all employees to recognize security awareness fundamentals, followed by a simple tailoring process for identifying and controlling sensitive information in the organization. The ideal awareness process includes an initial security awareness training session, followed by ongoing updates, which the Streetwise Security Zone provides.
