Technology Alone Is Not Enough
Most security breaches do not start with a sophisticated exploit. They start with a person — someone who clicks a convincing phishing email, reuses a compromised password, or sends sensitive data to the wrong address. Over 80% of breaches involve a human element. No firewall or monitoring tool can compensate for a team that has not been trained to spot threats.
When people understand how attacks work and what their responsibilities are, they make better decisions. The return is measurable: lower phishing click rates, fewer data handling incidents, and a team that reports suspicious activity instead of ignoring it.
Training Built for Your Team
Executive Security Briefings
Hands-On Training Sessions
Cyber Awareness Training
Format
Interactive workshop
Duration
Half-day or full-day
Audience
All staff
Every breach starts with a person — a clicked link, a reused password, a misaddressed email. We run interactive sessions that teach your team to recognise the threats they actually face at work. Not a lecture about abstract risks, but scenarios built around real phishing emails, real social engineering tactics, and the actual tools your people use every day.
What We Cover
- Recognising phishing and social engineering
- Password hygiene and MFA
- Safe browsing and email practices
- Data handling and classification
- Removable media and device security
- Reporting suspicious activity
Security Best Practices for Staff
Format
Workshop
Duration
2-3 hours
Audience
Role-specific groups
Generic training fails because it treats every employee the same. Your finance team handling payment data faces completely different risks than your marketing team on social media. We build sessions around what each group actually does — passwords, MFA, device security, remote working — contextualised for their specific role and tools.
What We Cover
- Password management and MFA
- Secure remote working practices
- Physical security awareness
- Social media and public exposure
- Device security and updates
- Incident recognition and escalation
Compliance & Policy Training
Format
Instructor-led
Duration
Half-day
Audience
All staff, with management deep-dives
You spent time writing security policies. Now find out if anyone has actually read them. We walk your team through what the policies say, what their obligations are, and why it matters — in plain language, not legalese. Where sector-specific regulations apply, we cover those too.
What We Cover
- Information security policy walkthrough
- Data protection obligations
- Acceptable use policies
- Regulatory requirements (sector-specific)
- Compliance documentation and evidence
- Annual refresher programme
“The best security investment most SMEs can make is a half-day of training.”
Phishing Simulation & Response
Awareness training tells people what phishing looks like. Simulation shows you whether they can actually spot it. We run controlled phishing campaigns against your team — realistic emails that get progressively harder over quarterly cycles — and give you hard data on who clicked, who reported, and where the weak spots are.
Nobody gets punished for clicking. Employees who fall for a simulation get immediate, constructive feedback and follow-up training. Over time, click rates drop, reporting rates climb, and you have the numbers to prove your training investment is working.
Executive Security Briefings
Your board needs to make security decisions — budget, risk appetite, insurance, incident response. They cannot do that if nobody has explained the landscape in terms they understand. We deliver a 60-to-90-minute briefing covering the threats relevant to your business, the regulations you need to meet, and the investment priorities that will make the biggest difference.
We also cover what happens when a breach occurs — because the board's first few hours of decision-making can determine whether an incident stays contained or becomes a crisis. The result is a leadership team that can ask the right questions and make informed calls, not one that defers everything to IT.
