As organizations and consumers increasingly embrace cutting-edge technologies, cyber threats continue to evolve and become more frequent. They not only affect the targeted enterprise, but also its business partners, suppliers and customers.
Implementing the latest protection measures to avoid data theft and loss, lawsuits and reputational damage, among other issues, has never been so crucial.
Understanding that training is key to this implementation, SGS and PECB have united to provide an all-encompassing digital trust training initiative. Combining SGS’s decades of digital, information security and cybersecurity expertise with PECB’s recognized, accredited infosec and cyber-focused training portfolio, clients can easily access over 300 online and in-person courses.
Amanda Mangan, Global Head of Training at SGS, said: “We are delighted to partner with PECB. Together, we look forward to enhancing organizations and people’s digital trust knowledge and skills, ultimately providing greater protection against hackers, fraudsters, data loss and more, at a time when it is needed most.
“By partnering, we combine two powerful networks of experts and technologies to create continuity and offer an incredible range of training to suit the organization or person’s needs and skills gaps.”
