Security Awareness Training: Empower Your Employees Against Cyber Threats

HumanShield delivers pragmatic, measurable security awareness training to empower employees and reduce human-driven risk. Our portfolio spans instructor-led classroom programs, expert-led virtual workshops, and a flexible e-learning platform — all designed to build a strong security culture across the enterprise.

Comprehensive Employee Security Training Programs

While online training does have a role to play in the modern workplace, the effectiveness of classroom training is yet to be matched. We deliver Information Security Awareness Training for all levels customized based on the role the individual plays in the organization:

• End User Training: This is for staff who are users of technology. Their main concern is to work efficiently while following security good practices.
• IT Team: This is for the IT Team who are the custodians of the organization’s digital assets. They need to be aware of the latest threats and defenses
• Senior Management/Board of Directors: This is for those who need to be aware of of the strategic importance of information security, to enable them to decide the investment needed to keep the organization safe.

However, not all classroom training sessions are equal. We use interactive content like videos and exercises to involve participants. One of the key elements of our training sessions is “What’s in it for you?”. In other words, we ensure that participants take away information that is not just useful for their work but also their personal lives. This makes them more interested and is a win-win for everyone.

We also conduct a quiz at the end of each session to ensure that your training efforts are measurable.

In addition to classroom Security Awareness Training, we also deliver specialized security training that your IT Team may require:

• Cloud Security Fundamentals
• Business Continuity Fundamentals

What is Security Awareness Training?

Security awareness training teaches employees how to recognise, avoid and report common threats such as phishing, social engineering, malware and unsafe data handling. Beyond defensive behaviours, the training explains why security matters — from protecting customer data to preserving business continuity — and the benefits include reduced incidents, faster reporting and improved audit posture.

Industry-Specific Security Training

Certain sectors face specialised threats and regulatory constraints. HumanShield offers tailored, vertical-specific training so your workforce learns the controls and behaviours that matter most to your industry.

Cybersecurity Training for Healthcare Organizations

Healthcare-focused modules cover patient data protection, HIPAA-aware controls, secure handling of clinical systems, and breach scenarios specific to healthcare workflows. These sessions prioritise protecting sensitive patient information while enabling clinical operations to continue safely.

Security Awareness for Financial Services

For banking and financial services we focus on customer data confidentiality, payment-card security (PCI DSS considerations), fraud prevention and regulatory reporting. Training helps staff identify transaction fraud signals and handle sensitive financial data securely.

Education Sector Cybersecurity Training

Schools and higher education require awareness programs that balance open collaboration with protection of student records (FERPA), research data and campus IT systems. Our education modules cover safe remote access, account security, and protecting research IP.

Technology Companies Security Programs

For tech companies and developer teams, training emphasises secure development practices, dependency management, insider risk awareness and safe operational procedures. Content is tailored for engineers, product teams and SREs to reduce exposure from code and configuration errors.

Our Security Awareness E-Learning Platform

HumanShield’s also operates security awareness e-learning where it offers flexible, self-paced courses and managed learning paths that support role-based skill development. The platform combines short micro-learning modules, scenario-driven content, and easy admin controls so organisations can scale awareness with measurable outcomes.

Interactive & Gamified Learning Modules

Our interactive and gamified modules increase engagement and knowledge retention. Bite-sized scenarios, quizzes and simulation exercises turn passive lessons into active learning — improving detection rates for phishing and other social-engineering threats among employees.

Mobile-Friendly Security Training

Mobile accessibility ensures learning fits into busy schedules. HumanShield’s mobile-friendly training delivers the same core curriculum in responsive formats, enabling remote and frontline staff to complete modules on the go and reinforcing security behaviours wherever work happens.

Compliance-Ready Reporting & Dashboards

Built for administrators, our platform provides compliance-ready reporting and dashboards that show completion, assessment scores and engagement metrics. Automated exports and audit-friendly reports help governance teams demonstrate training coverage to auditors and regulators.
