Cyber Security Awareness

The people who work for you are your biggest risk because more than 90% of cyberattacks target and use them. To protect private and personal information, it's important to know how bad a breach is. Connect In Cloud's full range of awareness programs lowers this risk. We strengthen your cyber security by turning your employees from targets into active defenders through a mix of fun online training and tough phishing simulations.

What is Cyber Security Awareness?

Cyber Security Awareness is our brand for fully managed services that help you improve your security by reducing human risk. Our custom, fully managed services are trusted by more than 1,000 businesses and will keep you safer for a lot less than the cost of an average cyber attack.

We are the best in the business at fully managed Security Awareness Training and Testing. Our unique, tried-and-true method has helped over 500,000 employees stop security incidents.

Your employees are the most important part of your business because they are the ones who do the work that makes it successful. They are also the biggest cyber threat and the most likely target for hackers.

To protect your business from data breaches, financial loss, or damage to your brand reputation, you need to make sure your employees know about today’s cyber threats, give them the tools they need to spot and avoid risks, and keep an eye on cybercrime at all times.

Cyber security awareness for employees

Cyber security awareness training gives your workers the tools they need to keep your business network safe from targeted cyber-attacks. You can lower risks by making people more aware of cyber security and best practices for your business network. This will give you a cyber confident workforce and customers who trust you to keep their personal information safe.

GDPR & information assurance awareness

Any business that handles customer data must keep that data safe. Having employees who know about the GDPR is a big part of making sure your business follows data protection laws and that your customers know you take care of their information. You can lower the risk of a data breach and keep your employees’ information assurance awareness high by giving them regular online GDPR training. The ICO also strongly suggests that you train your staff on the GDPR. This will help you comply with the GDPR and get accreditation.

Phishing cyber awareness and protection

Phishing attacks are the most common way for cybercriminals to get past business security defences, and they are becoming a bigger problem for many businesses. Cyber security awareness is the best way to protect yourself from phishing, but you can make your cyber security even stronger by using phishing email protection at the same time. Phish999 adds an extra level of advanced spam filtering to your mail server. This makes it less likely that your employees will get unwanted and possibly harmful emails. Our service also adds a button to your email client that lets employees report suspicious emails. This raises awareness of phishing across your whole business.

Dark web monitoring

Cybersecurity awareness and dark web monitoring go hand in hand to lower the risk of your business credentials being stolen by showing that your corporate domain is available on the dark web. You can get breached credentials from fake websites, accidental exposure, and tested data, among other places. CyberSIGHT is our dark web monitoring tool that helps stop, report, watch over, and fix cyber security problems. It also sends you alerts and extra support to keep you up to date on the security of your business network.

Monthly vulnerability scanning

Vulnerability scanning is usually done once a year and promises to find and stop people from using your business networks and private data. We take vulnerability scanning very seriously, so we know that your annual vulnerability assessment is no longer valid as soon as the check is done. Monthly vulnerability scanning checks for threats, open ports, and weaknesses on a regular basis to find and fix network problems before they become real problems for your business and your customers.

Policy acknowledgement

Policy acknowledgement will make it so that you don’t have to buy and run expensive systems. A fully integrated cyber security awareness policy service that delivers and reports on how well your employees understand the policies will help your business without adding to your workload or using up your resources. This cheap solution is flexible, scalable, and fully managed. It comes with free templates and legal and HR evidence for compliance, so you don’t have to worry about making sure that everyone in the company knows about corporate policies.

Frequently asked questions

Cyber security awareness refers to the education and understanding of online threats and the measures taken to protect your business against them, usually rolled out among employees.

Increasing reliance on technology and the internet has made it a prime target for cyber-attacks which can result in financial losses, reputational damage and even the theft of sensitive information. Cyber security awareness training ensures employees are aware of threats and their consequences if successful.

Information security awareness is important because it helps protect sensitive and confidential information from unauthorised access, theft and damage. Without proper awareness, individuals and organisations may not be aware of the risks involved with handling sensitive information, or the steps they can take to secure it.

The goal of cyber security awareness training is to educate employees to detect and protect cyber security threats before they become a real and potentially damaging issue for your business.

Cyber crime can pose real and devastating consequences for businesses in the age of the internet. With finances and reputation on the line, it is important that all employees feel confident in their ability to identify a cyber threat and the steps to take to prevent or remediate the situation.

There are many ways your business can reduce the risk of cyber crime. By implementing strong policies around passwords and information handling, as well as providing up-to-date training and integrated cyber security solutions your business will be in a position to reduce the risk of becoming a victim of a cyber-attack.
