| Titre | NBlog Feb 20 - proceed with caution |
| Texte |  Using the InfoSec 101 theme I mentioned on Feb 14th, I'm close to finishing the first set of presentation slides with a preponderance of yellow and black. Through a carefully chosen sequence of bright, clear images, no bullet points and very few written words, the slides tell a visual story based around risk. The core message is that information security is less a case of stopping the business from doing things, than of being vigilant. 'Proceed with caution' sums it up nicely.Given the elegance, simplicity and power of those 3 words, I'm not sure whether to elaborate on information risk and information security at all, in fact. I guess we'll mention a few current current threats, some recent incidents and typical controls in the speaker notes but I rather like the idea of leaving it up to the presenter/trainer to decide how to play things at run-time - during the induction courses and awareness program launch sessions for which the 101 module is destined. Some audiences will get it, effortlessly, while others might need a bit more of a steer, more of a clue about the point we're expressing here. I've blogged before about my strong preference for images over written words on training course and seminar slides. The audience should focus their energies on understanding what the present/trainer is putting across, rather than reading the words on the screen, and is there anything more sleep-inducing than an inept and often nervous presenter literally reading aloud his own slides, often great blocks of text in a dreadful monotone?It's not exactly death by PowerPoint, but close. "Take it easy, relax. Your eyelids feel heavy ..." The answer is glaringly obvious: swap the written words for diagrams and images. Visual impact is doubly important for induction courses since inductees are often assaulted by an avalanche of new information. There's a lot to take in - not just from the slides and maybe handouts but from the speakers/trainers too, plus their new colleagues. If our InfoSec 101 materials add to rather than slicing through the information fog, we\ |
