Cyber Security Training For Employees & Employers

A common cyber criminal method is a phishing attack, which is aimed at all levels of the organisation - employees, management and directors. This is an attempt to steal your organisation’s data and customer information and has been very successful and is costing operations a lot of money.

This method has also significantly increased in the last few years because it currently is very effective. And so it is very important for organisations to cyber security train all employees, management, and Board members.

Cyber security awareness training is the process of formally educating a workforce on the various cyber threats that exist, how to recognise the threats before they engage, and to take effective steps to keep themselves and their company safe from criminal theft.

Human error playing a significant role in most security breaches, more than 90%, according to recent studies. 

Cyber security awareness makes employees and management’s understanding the different types of cyber security threats and how threats can hack an organisation’s IT security and what employees should do if they encounter such a threat.

At Cyber Security Intelligence we recommend the cyber security training firm GoCyber,, which is an excellent app based experience that focuses on driving behaviour change through action based learning and is engaging for the user.

  • Users are only required to invest 5-10 minutes a day for a week and are asked to engage in a combination of peer-to-peer learning, impactful actions, and social interaction in each daily step.
  • All accessed through the app-desktop is available, but the mobile app is encouraged, employees can ensure it fits into their working day and benefit personally through the advice it provides, as well as defining new, better online habits that reflect in their working environment too.
  • Users love the gamification aspect and there’s a leader board, and the more you interact the better you can do and this will bring personal benefits.

This different training approach that has a lasting very positive impact and significantly improves your organisation’s cyber security.
