Your Employees Can Be Trained to Protect Your Business

Cybersecurity isn’t about complexity — it’s about habits. We help your team build the right ones.

Cybersecurity isn't just a tech issue — it's a people issue. With the right training, your team can become your strongest defense. But many business owners and nonprofits think cybersecurity is too technical for their employees to grasp. After all, there are entire college programs built around it — how could the average team member keep up?

The truth is: they don't need a degree. What they do need is the right kind of training. Most cyber incidents don’t happen because a hacker broke through a properly configured firewall or wireless access point — they happen because someone clicked a suspicious link, reused a weak password, accidentally shared sensitive info, or forgot to update their software. And those are habits anyone can change with the right training and guidance.

 

At CYBERRISKED℠, we train employees to make safer decisions in real-world situations. And yes — it works.

Here's the Reality.

  • Human error is the leading cause of cybersecurity breaches.

  • Over 90% of successful attacks involve phishing, poor password hygiene, or risky digital habits.

  • These aren't "tech problems" — they're people problems.

 

Your employees don’t need to understand encryption protocols or network segmentation. They just need to learn cybersecurity basics that cover the majority of bad scenarios happening to businesses across the country. 

 

Basic cybersecurity skills are not only trainable — it’s transformational.

Working with Real People In Real-World Settings

We've trained small and mid-sized business and nonprofit teams from all walks of work life — front desk staff, busy office managers, non-technical employees, and more. Every workshop is hands-on, interactive, and adapted to your specific business and staff.

No cookie-cutter content. No pre-recorded videos to zone out to. Just talking animated characters. Just real trainers giving your team real-world practice that leads to real confidence.

We’ve seen firsthand how even one session of targeted training can dramatically reduce day-to-day cybersecurity risk.

Our Approach Makes It Easy

Why Our Approach Works

Most cybersecurity training programs are dry, passive, and forgettable. We take a different approach:

  • Live, instructor-led workshops — on-site or on Zoom for real-time engagement

  • Customized to your tools, roles, and business workflows

  • Built to be practical, approachable, and relevant

  • Designed for small teams, not corporate budgets

 

We don’t teach for the sake of teaching. We train for the sake of protecting.
