Training

The correct answer is: Training

An employee confidentiality agreement is categorized as a training measure because it engages employees in understanding their responsibilities and the importance of protecting sensitive information within the organization. By having employees sign a confidentiality agreement, the organization is reinforcing the protocols and expectations related to information security and confidentiality. This is part of training because it educates employees about the potential risks and consequences associated with confidentiality breaches, ensuring they are aware of how to safeguard sensitive data. This approach not only raises awareness but also promotes a culture of compliance regarding information protection. Employees are informed about the legal and ethical implications of mishandling confidential information, which is essential for minimizing security risks within the organization.
