Norm elements

A.7.2.2 Information security awareness, education and training

“All employees of the organisation and, where relevant, contractors shall receive appropriate awareness education and training and regular updates in organisational policies and procedures, as relevant for their job function.”

All anDREa employees and contractors working for anDREa will have to complete the Information Security & Data Protection training as part of the onboarding process to establish base knowledge of information security and to increase awareness. Employees have the opportunity to complete above mentioned training in ‘training form’ with feedback or ‘quiz form’ with feedback. The quiz form will result in a score, which is valid for one year after which the training is updated and has to be completed again. Reminders are sent out automatically. The Security Officer registers the scores.


In addition, awareness articles are published on the support website and are mandatory reading material for anDREa employees (articles are also available for all myDRE users). Moreover, if the need arises (such as when there is a trend in awareness-related security incident tickets), company-wide information security sessions can and will be scheduled. Finally, new employees are encouraged to read all the policies but in particular A.6.2 Mobile Devices & Teleworking, A.7.2.3 Disciplinary procedure, AI/LLM Use Policy and HR Manual are mandatory. Employees have to confirm that they have read and agree with both policies.
