Cyber Security Capacity Building Planning Within Organisations

Abstract

Organisations are facing challenges of protecting their data in cyberspace since damages of cyberattacks might potentially run into billions, besides killing investor confidence and denting brand image. Recent data shows that one of key threats for organisations are insider attacks caused by person who has/had authorized access to an organization’s information system, and thus having the knowledge about the system and being a potential point of intrusion, and jeopardizing the availability, integrity and confidentiality of the organization’s information systems. That is a reason why we analyse key factors influencing planning of capacity building activities for employees, and thus making optimal planning of raising awareness, training and education activities.
