Amazon is providing businesses and individuals around the world with free access
to the same cybersecurity awareness training the company's employees use.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy attended the White House’s Cyber Summit with President Joe
Biden and other tech leaders in August to discuss how the private and public
sectors could work together to improve cybersecurity. During the meeting, Jassy
announced that Amazon would make available the cybersecurity awareness training
the company uses with its employees to businesses and individuals around the
world—at no cost.
Amazon is proud to deliver on that commitment. Amazon’s cybersecurity awareness
training is now available online.
“Individuals and companies of all shapes and sizes are grappling with an
increase in attempts at social engineering and phishing, tactics that may seem
unsophisticated but can actually lead to large incidents,” said Steve Schmidt,
Amazon Web Services’ chief information security officer. “Education is the key
to helping people and organizations better identify these threats and keep
themselves protected. Amazon has seen the real impact and value of our
cybersecurity awareness training, and we’re proud to share the program with the
public."
KEEPING COMPANIES AND EMPLOYEES SAFE
The training includes identifying the most common social exploits for businesses
and individuals. The content includes how to consider managing secure
communication, phishing, social engineering, physical security, and data
privacy, among other topics. Even when cybersecurity training resources are
available and provide the right information, people often lack the time or
interest to invest in an hours-long course. To meet that challenge, Amazon’s
training was designed to be digestible, succinct, and entertaining to keep
learners highly engaged. The courses also help people interact with content
aligned with seven global compliance frameworks, including frameworks published
by the National Institutes for Standards and Technology (NIST) and the
International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
DESIGNED FOR INCLUSION AND ACCESSIBILITY
The curriculum was designed using best practices for inclusion and accessibility
to ensure all learners can connect with the security content and bring what they
learn into their daily lives. The training consistently receives high
satisfaction ratings from Amazon employees, with an average of 4.7 out of 5
stars. The training will be available globally, with content available in
English, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, French, German, Italian,
Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Tagalog, Arabic, Russian, Polish,
Vietnamese, and American Sign Language (ASL). American Sign Language is also
offered with English, Spanish, or French text and captions.
There are two ways to utilize the cybersecurity awareness training:
* Learning management system: The training is available for businesses and
organizations to integrate into their own learning management systems (LMS).
* Online training: For individuals and small businesses without an LMS, the
training is also hosted by Amazon on the Learn Security website, where the
courses can also be completed.
Learn more about the course and find out how to take the training for free.
