The course is designed for the typical staff member of any organisation to help them identify common cyber threats. Despite heavy investment in cyber security solutions and technology, businesses are still suffering due to the increasing success of phishing attacks.

Who is this course for?

This course is to help users become your last line of defence rather than a victim. The training provides the context and practical tips on recognising email and web threats using real world examples.

There will be interaction with the internet to demonstrate how sensitive details about a business and individuals can be obtained and sold on the black market along with a walkthrough of recent fraudulent emails and counterfeit websites. The approach is to keep the content interesting, relevant, easy to digest and we even throw in a little humour to stimulate thought processes around potential attacks.

  3. Web Browsing: coaching of 6 methods to identify malicious and fake web sites
  4.  Public Wi-Fi: applying caution when connecting to Wi-Fi

What a recent Customer had to say

We found CSTL professional and easy to engage with; they provided a series of in-house cyber awareness training sessions for staff. The feedback from the training was very positive, we were given examples that we could all relate to and improvements were suggested which could easily be adopted. The training was delivered in an extremely friendly way, which in our case, encouraged our staff to engage throughout, meaning we all took more from it.  Overall, these have increased our understanding of cyber-security risks to our business, as well as coaching staff of how to identify cyber threats and act accordingly.
