ECCT's goal is to create a security awareness culture for all levels of staff and management within your credit union. Your employees will learn the essential tactics and strategies that they can use daily to cope with many aspects of network security, including:

• Information Technologies, Risks and Challenges
• Password Management
• Desk Area Security
• Workstation Vulnerabilities
• E-mail Guidelines
• Internet Usage Policies
• Identity Theft Issues
• Social Engineering Issues and Resistance to Such Attacks
• Incident Reporting
• Security Awareness as an Attitude

The material covered in our security awareness training is always kept up-to-date and covers the latest areas of technology risk. ECCT customizes each credit union's training seminars by taking into consideration the credit union's staff and branch locations and by making whatever accommodations are necessary so that all employees can attend and receive the maximum benefit.

ECCT SECURITY TRAINING HISTORY

ECCT provides educational services for credit unions, state credit union leagues, league chapter meetings, CUNA and CU data processors. With years of experience, ECCT has developed a training methodology that easily adapts to all levels of credit union staff members and provides multiple benefits to all attendees. Our professional security seminars have become well known in the industry by word of mouth among numerous organizations and credit unions. We pride ourselves on delivering the most informative and easy-to-follow seminars that help credit unions can operate with a more robust security posture.

SECURITY AWARENESS TRAINING DEFINED

Strict adherence to written policies is required for a credit union's Security Program to conform to NCUA specifications so that Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is protected. Once the credit union verifies that the technical, managerial and operational controls are in place to protect credit union and member privacy, one task remains: to ensure that every staff member from the executive level to managers and personnel, understand their individual roles in implementing the credit union's security policy. Teaching employees their responsibilities regarding security and making them accountable for their actions or inaction is paramount. This Security Awareness Training is not only about learning security concepts, but rather about developing new habits that will change behavior.

To create its security awareness training, ECCT has drawn from successful security programs in credit unions across the country as well as from our own organization. Our Security Awareness Training Seminar has been developed and is presented by a professional speaker, who is a CISSP with years of field experience in Information Systems Security and Privacy Protection.

With this training, all employees throughout your organization will learn to head off security issues and rise to a level of information handling excellence. In addition, by documenting employee attendance at the annual training seminar, your credit union will be in compliance with best practices, as defined by the FFIEC and NCUA guidelines.
