Proofpoint Security Awareness Training – PSAT Training

Minimize People-Related Risks to Beef Up Your Overall Security

Do you have the latest technology protecting your networks and systems? The bad news is that attacks are still likely to slip through if your employees are unaware of threat patterns and identification techniques.

PSAT training programs are developed to equip your people with the practical knowledge and phishing protection methodologies that security experts swear by. This training can benefit your entire organization by cementing the readiness of your employees to prevent, report, and mitigate cyber threats.

Properly trained workers, contractors, and partners are just as vital for the digital security of your business as Spambrella’s email solutions. When tech-powered protection is coupled with increased awareness, there’s no way for phishing, malware, or BEC cases within your organization.

PSAT training is delivered by our Proofpoint-authorized experts and can be adjusted to the security needs of any company. The programs are based on a people-centered approach and aim to prepare your staff to tackle any cybersecurity risk.

The awareness levels of employees regarding fraudulent practices and techniques are concerning. Take a look at how many workers across the globe are inadequately educated about the threats they may face on a daily basis.

That’s why cybersecurity awareness training must be a matter of focus for all organizations. When provided in line with your company’s security requirements and privacy culture, it empowers you to build another type of protection with fewer people-related risks and successful email-borne attacks.

Interactive Training Modules

Make sure your workers are prepared to act in their own and your company’s interests when encountering a cyber threat. Our interactive modules include attack simulations and can be completed within 5-15 minutes.

Awareness Videos

Plain text isn’t likely to stick, but our informative videos are. They can underpin the importance of security awareness training and make complex information easier to absorb and retain.

Security Awareness Materials

Mix captivating posters, educational articles, relevant images, and other cybersecurity materials to achieve top-of-mind awareness and ensure your training pays off.

How Often Should You Run PSAT?

It’s recommended that SMBs carry out security awareness training for employees at intervals:

• Perform cybersecurity knowledge assessments amid unannounced, controlled phishing tests annually.
• Share security awareness materials and arrange in-person training sessions twice a year.
• Run general PSAT programs on pertinent topics for all workers in your company at least quarterly.
• Perform simple phishing tests every six weeks while using different phishing techniques and wording to evaluate the effectiveness of the provided training.
• Analyze VAP reports at least monthly to identify employees who should receive personalized training and deepen their awareness.
