Security Awareness Training

Your people are your first line of defence. We deliver engaging, role-based security awareness training that changes behaviour — and gives auditors the evidence they need.

Human risk loop LIVE

  • Role-based programmes
  • Live & on-demand sessions
  • Executive & developer tracks
  • Completion & audit reporting

Overview

UK staff are targeted daily by HMRC, delivery-company and fake invoice scams. Our training uses realistic UK examples, covers handling personal data under UK GDPR, and gives you completion records for ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and customer audits.

Most successful attacks involve a human element — a clicked link, a reused password, a convincing phone call or a misdirected payment. Technology reduces risk, but people who recognise and report threats stop attacks that tools miss.

Our Security Awareness Training programmes are built around real attacks our SOC and red team see. We combine short, engaging modules with live sessions for high-risk groups such as finance, executives, HR and developers, and reinforce learning with phishing simulations.

Programmes are aligned to compliance requirements such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, Cyber Essentials and UK GDPR, with reporting that proves training actually happened.

Frequently asked questions

How often should employees be trained?

At least annually, with onboarding training for new joiners and short, frequent reinforcement throughout the year.

Is training delivered live or online?

Both. We combine on-demand modules with live sessions for high-risk teams.

Do you provide evidence for auditors?

Yes. Completion and assessment reports are provided for compliance evidence.

Do you quote in pounds sterling?

Yes. UK proposals are fixed-price and quoted in GBP. Prices exclude VAT where VAT applies to cross-border services. We confirm the treatment for your organisation in the proposal.

Can you support UK organisations from India?

Yes. All services are delivered remotely by our team in India. India is 4.5 hours ahead of UK time during British Summer Time and 5.5 hours ahead in winter, so our working day overlaps with yours every morning and afternoon. Testing windows and escalation contacts are agreed around your UK schedule, and 24/7 services run around the clock.
