Training Modules

Foundational cybersecurity education designed to protect your organization by improving everyday employee behavior. Role-aware, interactive, and built to reduce common human-driven risks.

Purpose of Training Modules

Most security incidents begin with simple, preventable actions. Unsafe file handling, poor password practices, unverified downloads, improper use of removable media, and lack of awareness around social engineering are common entry points for breaches.

Training Goals

  • Establish a shared security baseline across all employees
  • Reduce accidental security incidents
  • Reinforce company security expectations
  • Support a strong security culture without technical complexity

What This Is

Preventive education. Not system monitoring. Training operates alongside Passive Protection and behavior monitoring, but remains educational in nature.

Role and Department-Aware Training

Not all employees face the same risks. Training modules are selectively assigned based on department, role, device type, and business function.

Finance Teams

Additional modules on data handling and fraud awareness

Front-Desk Staff

Modules focused on physical security and safe system use

Non-Technical Roles

Technical or irrelevant content is filtered out automatically

This ensures training remains relevant and respectful of employee time.

Interactive Training Design

Modules are designed to prevent passive completion. Employees must actively engage to progress.

Each Module Includes

  • Short, real-world scenarios
  • Interactive decision points
  • Simple prompts requiring user input
  • Knowledge checks embedded throughout
  • Progress that requires participation

What We Avoid

  • Long lectures
  • Autoplay videos
  • Slide decks that can be skipped
  • Passive content consumption

Module Length and Structure

Module Format

  • 3-7 minutes long
  • Focused on one topic at a time
  • Written in clear, non-technical language

Consistent Structure

  1. Everyday workplace scenario
  2. Why the behavior matters
  3. Common mistakes to avoid
  4. What good behavior looks like
  5. Short interactive check

This structure keeps training effective without overwhelming employees.

Core Training Topics

Training covers essential cybersecurity fundamentals. Modules are updated as threats and best practices evolve.

Password hygiene and account security

Safe email and attachment handling

Download and file safety

Social engineering awareness

Physical security and workstation safety

Proper use of removable media

Understanding company security policies

Insider Risk Reduction Through Education

Training Reduces Risk By

  • Eliminating unintentional policy violations
  • Setting clear expectations for acceptable behavior
  • Reducing "lack of awareness" incidents
  • Reinforcing responsibility without accusation

Combined with Passive Detection

  • Prevent common insider-risk scenarios
  • Identify issues early
  • Address risk before escalation

No system can eliminate insider risk entirely. This combined approach significantly reduces the most common and preventable insider-related incidents.

Administrator Control and Visibility

Administrators Can

  • Assign modules by department or role
  • Control which modules are visible to which teams
  • Track completion rates
  • Review organization-wide training progress
  • Adjust training requirements over time

Privacy Consideration

Training data is aggregated by default to avoid targeting or singling out employees.

Employee Experience

Training is designed to feel supportive, not punitive.

Training Feels

  • Supportive, not disciplinary
  • Relevant to daily responsibilities
  • Easy to complete
  • Respectful of privacy and time

Employees are not told they are being monitored. They are simply trained to make safer decisions.

Summary

Deliver essential cybersecurity education for all employees

Adapt to different departments and roles

Require active participation

Avoid technical or surveillance-related content

Strengthen overall security posture when paired with Passive Protection

Education and behavior monitoring together address both human error and system risk, without overlap or confusion.
