Positive Cyber-Secure Training
New, highly-engaging cyber security app, endorsed by experts, challenges traditional learning and focuses on behavioural change to improve cyber safety for all employees
As financial implications for poor cyber security escalate the need to train employees in good cyber behaviour has never been greater.
Our latest Cyber Security Intelligence Report, which will be released this month, reveals that just 31% of all employees receive regular annual cyber security training and reviews how organisations engage staff to adopt the right cyber-secure habits when they know they are potentially under threat of an attack.
We think that one organisation, GoCyber, has a really good training programme that is highly engaging for cyber security awareness and it has a mobile app set to revolutionise the way employees learn about cyber security.
Inspired by popular habit-forming lifestyle apps, GoCyber doesn’t just provide training it changes the behaviour of individuals to increase their ability to be both cyber-aware and cyber-savvy.
Rather than traditional knowledge-transfer learning techniques, GoCyber uses inspiring content, social learning, gamification and a series of highly focused daily challenges to engage employees on the importance of cyber security, whilst providing them with the key tools needed to improve online habits, all within one mobile app.
Committing to 5-10 minutes a day, for 10 days, users take inspiring steps to instill good cyber habits. Thereafter monthly GoCyber updates, re-enforce knowledge and help maintain good online behaviour throughout the year.
All GoCyber content is endorsed by leading global cyber security experts, including Oxford based Alfred Rolington, former CEO of Jane’s Information Group, founder of Cyber Security Intelligence and highly regarded international spokesperson on Cyber Security.
Nick Richards, a co-Founder of GoCyber comments, “Too much learning is forgotten because it isn’t put into practice. GoCyber increases awareness on ways individuals can be tricked and provides immediate actions to take to avoid been caught out. Doing, reinforces the learning and, when repeated, builds habits.
“By improving the cyber behaviour of all individuals, organisations can operate safe in the knowledge that the risk of a cyber-attack caused by human error is significantly reduced.”
GoCyber has been developed through a joint venture with established digital learning provider Me Learning.
Me Learning supplied Lloyds Bank Charitable Foundation and the Church of England with GCHQ GDPR e-learning, and Lumen Consulting Group, a highly innovative tech and behavioural change specialist in San Francisco who has used its proven training apps for large scale global corporates.
