Based on decades of experience in the cyber security industry, Total Digital Security encourages employers and organizational leaders to put more emphasis on teaching individuals best practices about protecting their digital information. While in some cases security breaches can be the result of sophisticated infiltrations of network systems, in many cases it is simply caused by careless or uninformed individual users. This can include mistakes like failing to update passwords or software regularly, leaving accounts open on shared computers, accidentally downloading malicious files, or giving away information through phishing scams.

Effective training is about individuals, cyber self-defense, and their long-term quality of life. 

Brad Deflin, May 2017
