What should security awareness training for employees cover?

Security awareness training helps employees recognize common cyber risks, handle information carefully, and know how to report concerns. The right program should match an organization’s people, risks, policies, and evidence requirements.

Why security awareness

Why security awareness training matters for your organization

Technical safeguards alone aren’t enough. Phishing, social engineering, and unsafe routines often target the human factor. Security awareness training helps your employees spot risks early, respond the right way, and make secure behavior part of their everyday work.

Recognize phishing and social engineering

Identify suspicious messages, manipulation attempts, and common attack patterns early.

Respond safely and correctly

Report incidents, protect sensitive information, and act responsibly in critical situations.

Build secure habits

Reinforce security-conscious behavior with clear content, repetition, and practical learning nudges.

How to choose the right training approach

From needs assessment to results review, we support you in building a focused training program that fits the roles, knowledge levels, and requirements of your organization.

1

Define needs and audiences

We identify the relevant topics, roles, knowledge levels, and concrete training goals in your organization.

2

Select courses and learning paths

From the available courses, we put together the right selection for employees, managers, and subject-matter experts.

3

Deliver and support training

The selected content is delivered to each audience. Reminders, refreshers, and supporting communication help drive participation.

4

Review results and evolve learning paths

Depending on the format you choose, results are evaluated and used to define next learning steps or adjustments for specific audiences.

Security awareness training can also support broader information security and compliance requirements: ISO 27001, TISAX, CMMC.

Lasting awareness

Make security awareness last

Security awareness doesn’t come from a one-time training session. It grows through recurring learning nudges, the right formats, and progress you can track.

Refreshers and learning nudges

Regular content helps keep security knowledge top of mind in everyday work.

Your own phishing campaigns

Run your own phishing campaigns for your employees with built-in tools you configure. Phishing awareness training can be added as a supplementary component.

Progress, certificates, and badges

A course counts as passed at 70 percent, and participants receive a certificate of completion. Badges reward progress. Depending on the format you book, participation, completion, and training status can be documented in a traceable way.
