This SCaN for Line Managers module is designed for members of staff in supervisory or management roles within organisations, to increase their awareness of the hostile reconnaissance that could be undertaken by someone within their organisation in preparation for an insider event. This module will help staff identify this activity and know how they can help to counter it.
SCaN for Line Managers is designed as a ‘bolt-on’ SCaN module. We strongly recommend that learners undertake a ‘core’ SCaN module (All Staff, Customer Facing, Communications Professionals and CCTV Operators) before SCaN for Line Managers.
The Line Managers module consists of a short dramatic film which demonstrates the critical role of a line manager in supporting their staff, identifying suspicious behaviour that could be hostile reconnaissance and knowing how to disrupt insider events at the earliest planning stages.
The module outlines the core components of SCaN, focussing on how they apply to insider threat:
See – Understanding what hostile reconnaissance could look like in a workplace and how to spot it.
Check – Knowing what to do as a manager if you suspect hostile reconnaissance or identify suspicious activity from a colleague.
Notify – who you should tell and what you should tell them.
