What Our Security Awareness Training Provides?
Cyber security awareness training is an important element in protecting your organisation from cyber threats. Here’s a detailed look at what is included in our comprehensive training programs:
Recognizing and Avoiding Phishing Attacks
Phishing attacks are among the most common malicious practices. At Crypton, we focus on helping your team recognize these scams. We train your employees to identify phishing emails and messages designed to steal personal information or credentials. Our program covers best practices such as checking email sources, verifying the credibility of links before clicking, and avoiding suspicious links.
Password Security and Management
Password security and management are crucial for protecting your organisation. We train your employees to create strong, unique passwords that are hard to guess. We also familiarise your employees with password management tools that securely store and organise passwords. Additionally, we explain the risks of password reuse and provide strategies to avoid it.
Safe Internet Surfing and Email Practices
Safe internet and email practices are also essential for maintaining the cybersecurity of your business. We train your staff on how to navigate the web safely and avoid suspicious downloads. We provide them with best practices for handling email, while emphasising the importance of verifying the authenticity of emails before taking action.
Data Protection and Privacy
Your data is the first thing hackers want to get their hands on, and data protection and privacy are what stand in their way. We train your employees on how to handle data securely, including proper storage, sharing, and disposal of sensitive information while covering key principles of data protection laws and regulations relevant to your industry. We emphasise the importance of maintaining privacy and following procedures to protect both personal and business data.
Social Engineering Awareness
Social engineering is another serious threat where attackers can trick your staff into giving away sensitive information about them or your business and access it’s system. We train your employees to spot these tactics, which can come through phone calls, emails, or other messages with real-life examples to show how attackers may try to exploit trust.
Incident Response and Reporting
If your staff detects a suspected malicious attack or falls victim to a hacker’s tactics, they need to know the right steps to take. Our Incident Response and Reporting training teaches them how to manage and respond in either case. We train your employees to respond quickly and appropriately to security incidents, including identifying signs of a breach, containing the threat, communicating with relevant stakeholders, how to document and report incidents, ensuring all necessary information is captured for analysis and future prevention.
Secure Remote Work Practices
With the increase in remote work, the number of cyber threats is also rising as employees work from various locations. Knowledge of secure remote work practices is crucial for protecting your organisation’s data and systems. We train your staff on maintaining security while working remotely and provide guidelines for safe use of public Wi-Fi and secure methods for sharing sensitive information.

The training for a manager cannot be the same as for customer support staff.
