"The White House has recognized that cybersecurity is essential to the future of the U.S. and global economies. To be truly cyber-secure, both businesses and individuals must not only be equipped with state-of-the-art security software, they must also understand the essential ways cybercriminals attempt to exploit their behavior," said Anton Zajac, CEO of ESET, LLC. "ESET has been developing consumer and business training content and we are excited to be creating a new class of product that fuses these two essential elements of cybersecurity into a user-friendly solution."
