Insider Threat Awareness
Overview/Description: Government agencies face a dual threat to their security – that from outsiders trying to access data and systems, and from insiders – employees, contractors, or partners – who misuse, whether intentionally or not, their authorized access. Insiders represent a substantial threat because they have knowledge and access to systems, allowing them to bypass security measures through legitimate means. This makes them difficult to detect. To manage potential insider threats, government agencies and departments must establish a security framework that protects, detects, and responds to insider risks to systems, assets, and data. This course introduces essential concepts related to insider threats, focusing on employees’ role in protecting their agency’s sensitive data and systems. The course provides an overview of common characteristics and indicators associated with malicious insiders and effective ways to respond if you suspect someone inside your agency poses a threat.

Harassment Prevention for Managers – Higher Education Edition
Overview/Description: Typically, when people hear the term ‘workplace harassment’ they think of sexual harassment. But that is just one of the many forms workplace harassment may take. Unlawful harassment is any form of unwanted or unsolicited behavior directed at an individual or group of individuals, by another associate or superior, on the basis of a protected characteristic as outlined by various anti-discrimination laws (Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act). These protected characteristics include race, color, national origin, religion, sex (including sexual orientation, transgender status and gender identity), disability, and age. Depending on state law and other circumstances, additional characteristics such as marital status may also be protected. This course will review the characteristics of various forms of harassment and discuss what supervisors and managers can do to discourage harassing behavior of any type in their own work groups by their associates or themselves. Please note that the course materials and content are for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice.

Harassment Prevention for Managers – State and Local Government Edition
Overview/Description: Typically, when people hear the term ‘workplace harassment’ they think of sexual harassment. But that is just one of the many forms workplace harassment may take. Unlawful harassment is any form of unwanted or unsolicited behavior directed at an individual or group of individuals, by another associate or superior, on the basis of a protected characteristic as outlined by various anti-discrimination laws (including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act). These protected characteristics include race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability, and age. Depending on state law and other circumstances, additional characteristics such as sexual orientation and marital status may also be protected. This course will review the characteristics protected by law and discuss what supervisors and managers can do to model non-discriminatory conduct and discourage harassing behavior of any type in their own work groups by their employees or themselves. This course was developed with subject matter support provided by the Labor, Employment, and Employee Benefits Law Group of the law firm of Sheehan Phinney Bass & Green PA. Please note, however, that the course materials and content are for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice.
