The reality

Cybercrime is growing explosively

Ransomware, phishing, CEO fraud — threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated. AI makes it even easier for criminals: phishing emails are nearly indistinguishable from genuine ones and deepfakes are used for identity fraud.

The good news? Most attacks are preventable. Not with expensive technology, but with aware employees. 95% of all cybersecurity incidents involve a human factor. Training is the best investment.

AI adoption expands the digital attack surface

Aware employees are more effective than firewalls

Didactic approach

From awareness to behavioural change

The training is structured in three phases that guide employees step by step from recognition to lasting behavioural change.

1

Awareness

Module 1-2

Recognition of threats and immediate behavioural change. Focus: "What happens if I make a mistake?"

2

Competence

Module 3-4

Knowing what to do in practice. Focus: "How do I protect my workplace and how do I respond to incidents?"

3

Culture & Context

Module 5

Security as a habit, even outside the office. Focus: "How do I integrate security into my daily routine?"
