Security Awareness Training is Essential

Protect Your Business from Cyber Threats

Cyberattacks are evolving, and human error remains the #1 cause of data breaches. Security Awareness Training (SAT) empowers your employees to recognize and prevent phishing, ransomware, social engineering, and other cyber threats before they cause damage. It is now essential that SAT is part of every orgainisation's cyber resilience strategy.

The Growing Need for Security Awareness

  •  95% of cybersecurity breaches are caused by human error (IBM Security).
  • Phishing attacks account for over 36% of data breaches (Verizon DBIR).
  • 60% of small businesses hit by a cyberattack close within 6 months (National Cyber Security Alliance).

Without proper training, your employees are the weakest link in your security.

Key Benefits of Security Awareness Training

 ✅ Meet Compliance & Avoid Penalties – Satisfy auditors, insurers, and regulators with proof of training.
✅ Lower Cyber Insurance Premiums – Insurers often offer better rates for trained organizations.
✅ Stop Phishing & Social Engineering – Reduce click-through rates on malicious emails by up to 90%.
✅ Prevent Costly Data Breaches – The average breach costs $4.45 million (IBM 2023). Training is your best defense.
✅ Build a Human Firewall – Employees become your first line of defense against cyber threats 


Who Needs Security Awareness Training?

 ✔ Businesses Handling Sensitive Data – Required for compliance in finance, healthcare, legal, and retail.
✔ Companies with Cyber Insurance – Insurers increasingly require SAT for policy eligibility.
✔ Organizations Facing Audits – SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI audits demand proof of training.
✔ Remote & Hybrid Workforces – Employees outside the office are prime targets for hackers. 


Don’t Wait for a Breach—Act Now

 Auditors, insurers, and regulators are demanding SAT. Failure to comply can result in:
❌ Fines & Legal Penalties (GDPR fines up to 4% of global revenue)
❌ Failed Compliance Audits (Losing customer trust & contracts)
❌ Higher Insurance Premiums—or Denied Coverage
