So far in regards to the topics, I have (In no particular order) - Security Awareness and High Level Training - Account Management / Password Management / Local Admin Rights - Email Etiqute, Email Threats, and Email Security - Network and System Vulnerability Scanning/Patching - Network Security (Firewalls) - Backups and Backup Security - Wireless and WiFi Security - System Security, AV/HIPS - Website Security and Web/Application Security Testing - Sensitive Information and Applicable Laws, Regulations, and Compliance Requirements Any valuable input would be greatly appreciated.
