With training centres in Johannesburg and Cape Town, the company is able to provide a practical and hands-on learning environment in which to train and test students to be Certified Information Security Experts (CISE). CISE is one of the most recognised certifications of its kind globally and it covers both information security and ethical hacking topics.
Marthinus Engelbrecht, CEO of Neworder Industries explains: "Due to the globalisation and commoditisation of information technology, cyber criminals are no longer after personal information, but rather corporate intellectual capital as it is much more valuable and often less secure."
The dramatic rise in mobile device use in the workplace over the last few years has greatly contributed to cyber criminals gaining access to critical corporate information which they sell to competitors and foreign governments for a hefty sum.
Unfortunately, just as IT security spend increases, so too does the sophistication of cyber criminal attacks. "Everyone knows there is no such thing as 100% secure," Engelbrecht continues. "But the risk of data loss can be significantly reduced if an organisation's IT security personnel are adequately trained by industry standard institutions."
The CISE course runs over 40 hours and is aimed at business professionals as well as individuals interested in becoming certified information security experts.
The attainment of information security hinges on the awareness of employees at all levels. It is essential that all staff members who handle critical and sensitive data within a company understand the fundamental principles and practical requirements for vigilant protection of its information assets, as well as the mindful use thereof. As such, Neworder Industries is running a training course, called Awareness@Everylevel, which is designed for staff from all functional areas in business.
All of Innobuzz Knowledge Solutions' certified training courses are exclusive to Neworder Industries in SA, and forms part of Innobuzz's global growth and expansion initiative. In the last two years, Innobuzz has gone from Indian information security industry leader to global header and currently has footprints in more than 20 countries.
