Cyber Security Testing & Training

In the past 12 months, 32% of companies reported a cyberattack

Strengthen Your Team In 4 Simple Steps

It’s more important than ever to test & train your employees

Step 1

Password
Breach Check

To begin we complete a password breach check to determine how secure your employee accounts are and ensure these are secure before we continue.

Using this information, we advise on which accounts to secure ensuring you're accounts are as robust as possible from day one.

Step 2

Campaign
Is Set Up

We then set up a campaign to send one test email to your team at random times throughout each month.

Going forward, this hugely increases your team's awareness and skills for spotting cyber scams and means your team only receive training when they need it.

Step 3

Additional
Training

When a team member falls for one of our test phishing emails, they'll be asked to complete a short training video and quiz to learn the tell-tale signs of the scam and how to spot them in the future.

Consistency is key to ensuring your employees are always vigilant!

Step 4

Monthly
Reports

Each month, you'll receive a detailed report showing the percentage of your employees who fell for these tests.

From this report, you can clearly see who within your team has received additional training after not passing the test.

Your Team Won't Even Notice They are Being Tested

We have over 75 different styles of phishing emails that designed to replicate current threats. 

These harmless emails may tempt your team to click at random times during the working day much like a real scam email would.

What Happens When a Team Member Fails The Test?

If your team do click on these links, they will be met with an error page explaining they have failed the test.

That individual must then watch a short training video and complete a quick quiz to ensure they have understood the training.

95% of cyber security breaches are caused by human error.

How Your Team Will Benefit From Regular Testing & Training

Mitigate
Security Risks

Employees are often the weakest link when it comes to business cyber security.

Invest in your employees’ knowledge to keep your business safe and bridge the gap in your cyber security.

Safeguard Your
Sensitive Data

Don’t be caught out by something as simple as human error.

Handling vast amounts of sensitive data means a cyber attack on your business would cause serious implications for you and your clients.

Adhere to Compliance

Failing to comply with regulations can lead to severe legal consequences.

Cyber security training ensures that employees are aware of their responsibilities and the proper procedures to adhere to industry standards and regulations.

A recent study shows

security risks were reduced by 70% when businesses invest in cyber security training and awareness.

Why is Testing your Team on Cyber Security so Important?

New threats and malicious digital content continue to look more realistic and convincing. Keeping your team constantly vigilant has become a must to protect your business.

Our tests will help your team identify all the tell-tale signs of a cyber threat. Every member of your team will have an understanding of how to avoid a cyber attack.

Why Does Your Team Need Training?

Many people think only large companies get hacked, but this is 100% false. Today, there are bots that constantly try to attack all kinds of businesses.

Knowing and understanding how these attacks happen is key to ensuring your team minimises the potential for mistakes. This reduces the likelihood of successful attacks on your business.

We have found many businesses train their team only once or twice a year, but this does not work! 

Syn-Star is extremely helpful, friendly and patient, and is always happy to assist our team with their extensive knowledge and expertise.

Our experience with Syn-Star has been nothing short of outstanding. After a concerning data leak incident where our passwords were discovered on the dark web, their swift response and thorough investigation put our minds at ease. The team not only helped us change our passwords securely but also implemented robust cybersecurity testing and training programs for our employees. We now feel more confident in our cybersecurity measures and highly recommend their services.
