SECURITY AWARENESS PROGRAMS
NIST
800-50: Security Awareness and Training Program
This NIST publication provides detailed guidance on designing,
developing, implementing, and maintaining an awareness and training
program within an agency's IT security program.
ENISA: A Users’ Guide: How to Raise Information
Security Awareness
This document illustrates the main processes necessary to plan,
organise and run information security awareness raising initiatives:
plan & assess, execute & manage, evaluate & adjust. Each process
is analysed and time-related actions and dependencies are identified.
The process modelling presented provides a basis for "kick-starting"
the scoping and planning activities as well as the execution and
assessment of any programme. The Guide aims to deliver a consistent
and robust understanding of major processes and activities amoung
users.
NIST
800-16: Information Technology Security Training Requirements
(188 pages)
The overall goal for use of this document is to facilitate the
development or strengthening of a comprehensive, measurable, cost-effective
IT security program which supports the missions of the organization
and is administered as an integral element of sound IT management
and planning. Protecting the value of an organization’s information
assets demands no less. This approach allows senior officials
to understand where, in what way, and to what extent IT-related
job responsibilities include IT security responsibilities, permitting
the most cost-effective allocation of limited IT security training
resources.

security. How do you address the problem? This article offers
a practical approach to setting up an effective security awareness
program that gets everyone in the organization on board.
