Symbol Security Announces the launch of its next generation Learning Management Platform (Symbol-U) and turnkey Annual Security Training Program (Symbol ATP) for businesses of all sizes. These tools add features into Symbol's SaaS based Training Platform that allow for truly simplified deployment of Security Awareness Training programs.
MOUNTAIN LAKES, N.J., October 01, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- To address the continued challenges in successful market adoption of Security Awareness Training, Symbol Security, a SaaS based Security Awareness and Training Company, is announcing today the launch of its Annual Security Training Program called Symbol ATP. Symbol ATP is powered by Symbol Security's proprietary Learning Management System, Symbol-U. Symbol-U is designed to enable users of the Symbol platform easy access to their curriculum and learning activities, including preconfigured curriculum like Symbol ATP. Unlike other legacy learning management systems with varying use cases, Symbol-U is designed for one thing only, to deliver Security Awareness training to users, and report their performance back to administrators.
"The introduction and launch of Symbol-U and Symbol ATP bring together some of the most important success criteria involved in Security Awareness Training - it must be simple AND effective" said Symbol Security President and Co-Founder Craig Sandman, "Where things often go wrong in Security Awareness is not usually centered around content but more about usability and efficiency. When the delivery model is too complicated or the content is too time-consuming, it becomes more likely that customers will not successfully complete the program. With Symbol's ATP offering and our Symbol-U platform, we have solved for both of these problems by making simplicity and efficiency the priorities."
"Successful execution of Security Awareness training is so critical to reducing the cyber risk for all businesses," said Matt Webster, Co-Founder of Harbor Technology Group, a cyber security consulting firm based in New Jersey "Symbol Security's platform helps us execute with very little overhead and administration. Accurate and timely reporting is critical to our clients; within Symbol-U, we can easily track statistics and see which employees are on track, and which ones are not."
Within Symbol-U, administrators can easily assign individual training assets to groups of people, or with very few keystrokes can assign an entire organization to Symbol's ATP. By grouping users into segments, and allowing for customization of those segments, the Symbol-U platform is able to meet the varying training needs within a business, and within different groups within the same business.
"We know administrators of our platform may have different needs for different organizations and departments." said Sandman "One may want to customize the curriculum for groups of users, and another may want a single consistent and preconfigured curriculum. We can now easily support a full range of use cases with Symbol-U."
