¿́¿This work is specifically written for non-specialist officeholders tasked with enhancing security awareness in their organisation. ¿́¿foremost, a study of people, and secondarily, a model for effective security training programs¿́¿. The authors worked for the US Dept of Defense, where they found the practice of out-sourcing security education to be inadequate because of the special needs of high security organisations. Addressing the theories of sound security training and awareness, this book shows the reader how to put the theories into practice when developing or presenting any form of security education, training, motivation or awareness.¿́¿ -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 4th Edition ¿́¿ STAGE IV: LTC 2 and above.
