Each year, thousands of organizations are victims of phishing, malware, hacking, and other types of cyberattacks. Expectedly, this results in huge losses but what is instructive is that the key risk factor is human error.
According to Cybint, 95% of cybersecurity breaches are caused by human error.
In a cybersecurity survey conducted by the Ponemon Institute, which involved 1,045 small and medium-sized businesses, one of the key findings was that 60% of survey respondents that had a data breach said the cause was a negligent employee or independent contractor.
And in another one by Intel, which involved 19000 people in 144 countries, it was found that 97% of the people could not identify all the phishing emails in a sample of 10 emails.
The fact is that the most common reason for a breach is human error. However, the most common reason for human error is untrained employees.
Thus, the need for training of non-IT staff is critically important. This easily digestible course, designed for non-IT employees, will ensure that staff gain an appreciation of company-wide measures to protect against cyberattacks and their own role in the success of these defense measures.
Most important, it will help staff recognize phishing attacks, and when a cyberattack has been successful, understand what steps to take to mitigate the effect. The importance of practicing safe social media behavior to prevent cyber criminals from mining sensitive personal and company data will also be covered. In the capstone activity, each participant will create a personal cybersecurity plan.
Fighting against cybercrime is a constant and expensive endeavor. Without a trained and vigilant staff the effort will not be successful. That training needs to start now and its benefits will be seen through the reduction of successful cyberattacks.
Like all our courses, this course doesn't bore participants with boatloads of information and hope they remember it. Rather, it's interactive and requires employee participation and thought.

Training Information
Delivery: E-learning (interactive, self-paced & convenient, and affordable)
How It Works: Using the unique login information we will send, simply access our learning portal with your browser and start learning.
Our training is self-paced and so you’ll take it at your convenience – any time of the day that suits your schedule and as frequently as you like until you finish the course.
Anywhere you stop temporarily is automatically saved so when you resume you continue from there by default.
Duration: Because it's self-paced, participants finish at different times. However, on the average, busy participants finish in 1 week.
Reports: We send periodic reports to your organization until all employees complete their training. For each participant, the reports show progress, performance score, total time spent learning, and the last time course was accessed.
Certificate: Each participant receives a certificate of training if course is successfully completed.
Access period: 30 days (can be extended).
Access device: Computer, Smartphone, or Tablet.
Comes with: Course transcripts for reference, and 100% money-back guarantee.
Learning Management & Support: We will be in touch with all participants to encourage and support them until they finish. Our clients' employees always achieve high completion rate.
Learning Outcome: The learning outcome compares favorably with that of conventional training. This is because of increased level of participation through interactivity and self-paced ownership of the learning.
Participants will have the ability to stop and reflect whenever they want, or return to previously-delivered content, and thus ensure a deeper understanding before continuing. They will have the time to digest and integrate information being presented into their existing understanding and context. This is how they make sense of it leading to higher levels of cognitive engagement and higher levels of retention.
For the best learning outcome, we recommend that training be taken in chunks of minutes consistently rather than taking it in a long stretch trying to finish quickly.
