Security Training

We don't teach your employees with slideshows. We attack them first — then train them on exactly what they missed and why it worked.

Attack First. Train From Results.

Over 90% of successful breaches start with a human action — clicking a phishing link, giving credentials over the phone, holding a door for a stranger. Your employees are either your strongest defense or your biggest vulnerability. Generic compliance videos won't change that. Getting owned in a controlled environment will.

Our training program is built on the same social engineering campaigns and red team operations we run for offensive assessments. We execute realistic attacks against your employees, measure who falls for them, then debrief every participant with concrete evidence of what happened and how to prevent it next time.

How It Works

Training Topics

Every debrief session covers the specific attack vectors used in the campaign, plus broader cyber hygiene topics tailored to your organization's risk profile.

Combine live social engineering campaigns with training for maximum impact.

What You Receive

Every training engagement delivers a metrics report documenting campaign results — click rates, credential submissions, reporting rates, response times — alongside department-level breakdowns and trend analysis. You receive recorded debrief materials your team can reference, and a recommended cadence for follow-up campaigns to maintain and measure ongoing improvement.

Training FAQ

Traditional training uses slideshows and quizzes that employees forget within a week. We run real attacks against your team — phishing emails, phone calls, physical attempts — then debrief them with evidence from their own experience. People remember getting phished. They don't remember slide 47.

No. Campaigns are indistinguishable from real attacks. Employees learn they were tested during the debrief phase. This measures genuine behavior under realistic conditions, not test-taking ability.

Our debriefs are educational, not punitive. We frame every result as a learning opportunity and emphasize that the goal is to protect the organization — and the individual. The tone is collaborative, not blame-oriented.

We recommend quarterly campaigns at minimum to build sustained awareness. Monthly campaigns produce the fastest behavior change. We help you determine the right cadence based on your organization's size, risk profile, and compliance requirements.
