Security Awareness & Best Practices
From 275CREDS

Awareness training has a bad reputation because most of it is annual, generic, and instantly forgotten. This course teaches the version that works. You will learn to recognise phishing, pretexting, and business email compromise by structure rather than by spelling mistakes, handle passwords and passphrases sensibly, and secure the everyday surface: browsers, mobile devices, home networks, and removable media. Then you will build a programme: risk-based content, realistic simulations run without humiliating people, clear reporting channels, and metrics that measure reporting rate rather than click rate alone. Incident reporting is covered from the employee side, because a fast report is often the only control that still works.

Curriculum

Learning Path

Each level is enrolled separately. Work through them in order, or start at the level that matches your experience.

  1. Level 01

    Beginner

    275 CREDS

    Purpose

    Recognise social engineering by structure, because judging messages on spelling stopped working years ago.

    Outcome

    You can spot a well-made phishing attempt without relying on obvious errors.

    What You'll Learn
    • Break down phishing, pretexting, and business email compromise into their common components.
    • Identify urgency, authority, and isolation as the levers each one pulls.
    • Examine a convincing sample and name exactly what gives it away.
  2. Level 02

    Intermediate

    408 CREDS

    Purpose

    Secure the everyday surface, which is where most people are actually exposed.

    Outcome

    You can secure everyday working habits in a way that lasts.

    What You'll Learn
    • Set up a password manager and passphrases and retire reused credentials.
    • Harden browsers, mobile devices, and a home network to a practical standard.
    • Handle removable media and public networks without ceremony that nobody will keep up.
  3. Level 03

    Advanced

    731 CREDS

    Purpose

    Build a training programme people engage with rather than click through once a year.

    Outcome

    You can run awareness training that changes behaviour.

    What You'll Learn
    • Design risk-based content targeted at specific roles rather than everyone at once.
    • Run a phishing simulation that teaches without humiliating the people who fall for it.
    • Establish a reporting channel that is faster to use than ignoring the message.
  4. Level 04

    Expert

    994 CREDS

    Purpose

    Measure the programme honestly, since the usual metric rewards the wrong outcome.

    Outcome

    You can prove whether awareness training is reducing real risk.

    What You'll Learn
    • Track reporting rate and time to report rather than click rate alone.
    • Correlate simulation results with real incidents to see what actually transfers.
    • Report to leadership in terms of reduced dwell time, not percentage trained.
