Security is Everyone's Responsibility!

What is Security Culture?

Security Culture is a set of norms, beliefs, values, attitudes and assumptions that are inherent in the daily operation of an organization and are reflected by the actions and behaviours of all entities and personnel within the organization. Security should be everyone's responsibility - from the ground up.

Effective security culture is about:

Recognizing that effective security is critical to business success;
Establishing an appreciation of positive security practices among employees;
Aligning security to core business goals; and
Articulating security as a core value rather than as an obligation or a burdensome expense
