Our employee cybersecurity training process

Keeping a vigilant eye on the cybersecurity vulnerabilities of your organization is vital for your business survival. It doesn’t matter if your company is big or small or which industry it belongs to. If your employees connect to the internet, you risk being attacked by a hacker and losing data, money, and your reputation.

Hackers can steal your corporate identity—your business identification documents or credentials. They can also manipulate your inventory from a distance and cause you losses by preventing order fulfillment.

The cost of a sensitive data breach is enormous. However, money loss is not the only harm that hackers can do to your business. They can also put your customers’ safety at risk. For instance, if you’re into the business of self-driving cars or driverless metro trains, cybersecurity is even more imperative. Our cybersecurity training solutions can help your business stay one step ahead and defend your company against cyber threats.

How we approach cybersecurity training

The attention of your employees on cybersecurity awareness training is critical to protect your organization from hackers. So, we rely on the following to hook your employees’ attention:
- Catchy text, illustrations, and animated videos created with storytelling techniques
- Interactive exercises and quizzes
- Microlearning, or three- to five-minute training modules delivered frequently—at least once a month—to your employees
- Gamified scenarios to test their knowledge
As a result, cybersecurity awareness training becomes more effective and the lessons easy to understand and remember. And your employees won’t feel overloaded with too much new and critical information.
We’re all in on hands-on training methods to practice the procedures of cyber-risk mitigation. For instance, we may incorporate phishing simulations into your custom cybersecurity training solution. Simulations are an effective strategy to make sure that your employees retain the lessons they learn.

We don’t stop at explaining the exploitation techniques that your IT staff should use to analyze the impact of cyber risks. We show them how to apply those techniques firsthand.

And we customize your cybersecurity training solution to the:
- Cybersecurity tools of your preference
- Nature of your valuable information assets
- Size of your company, its locations, and IT infrastructure
Engaging cybersecurity awareness training solutions drive learners to change their behavior. And besides technological barriers, training is your defense line against cyber threats.

We have the tools and expertise to offer you the most engaging and effective cybersecurity training solution with:
- Real-world examples
- Practice activities
- Skill assessments to understand your employees’ protection level and readiness to respond to cyberattacks
We also bring your employees’ attention to the positive impact that corporate cybersecurity practices have on their personal lives. And we teach your employees to think critically about cyber threats. That’s as important as knowing the steps to prevent them.

FAQs

Cybersecurity training is learning dedicated to keeping valuable information safe on the internet. Activities such as using email services, browsing websites, or using social media networks pose a cybersecurity risk. Even the source code you write if you develop software applications must be protected from digital attack. Identifying, mitigating the risk, and recovering from cybersecurity threats are skills that cybersecurity training solutions develop.

Additionally, cybersecurity is a concern that includes your customers. Companies must implement the means to secure customers’ personal information. Customers want to know they can trust your business. They want to fill out online forms on your website or buy an item on your online store knowing their information is being protected. Effective cybersecurity training teaches your employees to prevent your customers’ personal data from falling into the hands of hackers.
Human behavior influences the cybersecurity of your organization. The most effective way to reduce the negative impact of that influence is by training cybersecurity awareness. Like everything in life, if we’re aware of the threat, we’re more likely to be able to prevent it from happening. And cybersecurity awareness is no exception! If your employees are aware of the risk of their actions, they will change their behavior. And you won’t have to recover from hackers’ attacks!
Threats can arise every day, so you must prepare everyone for what they must do to prevent them. Many business compliance programs and insurance plans demand annual cybersecurity training.

We recommend giving this kind of training when onboarding employees so that they adopt cyber-safe actions from day one—then following up with additional training at least once a year, preferably once a quarter or twice a year.In between cybersecurity training sessions, you can enroll your employees in simulation exercises. Plus, you should communicate news about cyberattacks to other companies that are relevant and relatable to yours.

Changing Hearts & Minds With Food Law

The legal department of a multinational confectionary and food products manufacturer was ready and willing to offer guidance through the production process, but found that it wasn’t being effectively utilized by employees. While they had plenty of helpful content, ELM knew that instilling confidence in the department was priority #1. Our designers helped change the way employees saw legal while highlighting what the department had to offer.
