Join Our Alert ListOur security awareness training is designed for employers who want to protect their organisations from cyber threats. According to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 60% of successful breaches involve the human element — meaning most attacks succeed because employees unknowingly click on phishing emails, execute malware or share sensitive data with attackers.
The most effective way to combat this risk is through education. Our training helps employees spot phishing attempts, recognize social engineering tactics, and build a security-first mindset. Invest in awareness — because cybersecurity starts with people.
Security Awareness TrainingSystem administrators are the first line of defense in identifying and stopping ransomware attacks before they cause major damage. This course is designed to equip admins with the skills to assist Security Operations Center (SoC) and Incident Response (IR) teams, acting as an extra set of hands and eyes on critical systems.
With privileged access to numerous machines, admins are in a unique position to spot early signs of compromise — right after initial access but before encryption or data exfiltration occurs. By recognizing anomalies such as unusual processes, unauthorized access patterns, or suspicious lateral movement, trained administrators can provide early intelligence to security teams, potentially stopping a human-operated ransomware attack in its tracks.
Invest in proactive defense — train your admins to detect, report, and prevent ransomware before it's too late.
