Cyber awareness refers to the level of awareness and understanding end users have about cybersecurity best practices and the cyber threats that their networks or organizations face everyday. As the volume of cyber threats becomes more rampant and new threats come into focus, what remains consistent is that human error and sophisticated impersonation attacks are behind 90%+ of cyber breaches. By mitigating your organization’s risk with an effective cyber awareness program you can make your employees your first line of defense against cyberattacks.

Increasing cyber security awareness among your users will undoubtedly help to prevent more cyber security threats. Email-borne threats have always targeted human beings, duping them into clicking on links, opening attachments or providing passwords and personal information that can be used to penetrate cyber security defenses. It doesn’t matter how much you’ve invested in the latest cyber security tools or the most sophisticated cyber security strategies – if your users can’t spot a suspicious link or a fraudulent email, your defenses are likely to be compromised.

More than 90% of cyberattacks today begin with an email, and nearly one in four phishing emails are open by unsuspecting employees. By promoting greater cyber security awareness, you can transform your users from unwitting accomplices into frontline defenders in the war against cyber crime.

Stealth-CS Awareness Training addresses all of the flaws in traditional training methodology to deliver cyber awareness training that employees love and, more importantly, that gets results.

Cyber security awareness training is usually pretty boring stuff – which also makes it pretty ineffective. That’s a big problem for many organizations, since human error plays a role in nearly all security breaches. Theoretically, cyber security awareness training for employees should be able to address this risk. But despite the billions of dollars that organizations have poured into training solutions in recent years, the chance that companies of all sizes will get hacked is greater today than four years ago.

Here’s why: when cyber security awareness training can’t hold employees’ attention, there is little chance it can change behavior. Most awareness training programs aren’t designed with education science in mind. Educators know that real learning happens when students are engaged and when the subject matter is broken down into chunks that can be easily digested. Yet most cyber security awareness training is tedious and/or delivered in intensive sessions that consume large portions of an employee’s busy day.

We keep it short. Each module is no more than 3 – 5 minutes in length. That means rather than taking the better part of a day to slog through security best practices, employees can accomplish their cyber awareness training on a very welcome break in their day. Each module covers a different topic, from email security awareness training that covers ransomware and phishing to compliance topics like HIPAA and GDPR awareness training. Stealth-CS offers an effective alternative that actually moves the needle on learning outcomes: massively engaging cyber security awareness training, delivered in short sessions once a month.
