I second Wiam's comments. A security awareness program needs to be holistic. Many of the responses have mentioned specific vendors or products, Optimally, those should be used in the context of a security awareness plan, where they are one component. Reliance on one vendor platform isn't going to provide everything you need. If you're attending #security20, for the last several years, we've offered a preconference seminar<https://events.educause.edu/special-topic-events/security-professionals-conference/2020/agenda/equipping-the-expedition-security-awareness-for-the-digital-ascent> on creating a security awareness plan. Resources from last year's seminar<https://events.educause.edu/special-topic-events/security-professionals-conference/2019/agenda/know-which-way-the-wind-blows-security-awareness-that-soars-separate-registration-is-required> are also available.

An Information Security Awareness program encompasses an array of educational and communication methods to raise your constituents' knowledge level on key security issues for the protection of their personal and the institution's information assets. EDUCAUSE offers online material on establishing an Information Security Awareness Program at https://www.educause.edu/focus-areas-and-initiatives/policy-and-security/cybersecurity-program/resources/information-security-guide/toolkits/security-awareness-quick-start-guide You may also consider joining the monthly EDUCAUSE Awareness and Training group, where Information Security Awareness professionals working in Higher ED meet to discuss best practices, processes, requirements and innovative Awareness & Training methods. Valerie Vogel at vvogel () educause edu<mailto:vvogel () educause edu> can send you a meeting invite if interested. Please don't' hesitate to reach out if I can be of any assistance.
