<a id="meaning"></a>

## Meaning

Help staff recognise suspicious messages, unexpected requests and unsafe handling of company information.

<a id="why"></a>

## Why it matters

A person who reports an unusual request gives the team a chance to check it before it causes damage.

<a id="actions"></a>

## What you can do

Use a realistic example from your work. Agree how to report it and how staff can verify a request through another channel.

## Services that can help

Workshops practise examples and produce instructions your team can use. Session frequency is agreed with you.
