Did you know that most successful cyber attacks stem from human error?
Staff are your first line of defence in recognising threats (like phishing), following best practices (strong passwords, data handling), reporting incidents, and helping meet compliance, ultimately saving costs, protecting data, and building a strong security culture against evolving risks.
Building IT Security knowledge and regular training transforms employees from vulnerabilities into a proactive shield, safeguarding company assets and reputation.
Group sessions provide an interactive way of learning, open the floor to questions and help to identify any employees who may require further help.

Discussion prior to the training
The more we know about your company, your IT setup and current procedures, the better we can aim to use terminology that your employees are used to.
Reporting
This section of the training can be tailored to your own reporting procedures. We will add names of managers and IT staff whom your employees should contact and will also discuss the methods in which they should make contact. Action Fraud and any other legal requirement for reporting will remain within the training
Policies
Throughout the training session, policies come up numerous times, we make it part of the discussion to understand the content and importance of these policies. At the end of the session we would be happy to hand out any IT policies relevant to the training which require the employee signature and answer employee questions on these where possible. We do ask that we read these policies in advance and that any concerns we raise receive a response prior to the training date. Common policies handed out on the day include: IT Security Policy, Email & Internet Policy, Use of Personal Devices for Work Policy, Bring Your Own Device Policy, Phishing Policy etc
