What Assets to Keep Secure

Another important aspect of information security to consider is People.

Many vulnerabilities emerge because of uncareful human behavior (for example: using a weak account password,) and can be prevented by providing adequate training and by raising the awareness of information security risks resulting from uncarefulness.

Keeping the employees of the workplace motivated and aware of security risks and involving them in the implementation of information security measures is an important aspect of information security that cannot be forgotten at any cost.

The collection of all the measures that we take to secure hardware, software, and data and to convey security principles to employees is considered a layered approach to security. An effective implementation of information security should consider all the layers without omitting any of them.
