We @IBM recommend the BeSecureOnline Team of speakers very happily. Our staff learned things they weren’t aware of about the use of social media, privacy settings, cyber-crime and data sharing. It's really important that IBM UK's staff fully understand online threats, personal hacking, protecting their finances and lives. We were stunned, many of us were able to take simple steps as he spoke.

The decision to pay a ransomware demand is a huge one. Is it safe? Will we get access to our systems again if we pay? Should I negotiate? Will they come again for more money? Will we survive financially? What are the other unknown risks?
CyberSecurity Awareness Training builds the best cyber security you can get, a human firewall. People who know what they doing, what links not to click, staff who don't open suspicious emails, and staff who are sharp to the possibility of phishing, and malware. Staff who won't harm the organisation.
I used to be insecure until I saw my password. No more cats' names, Birthdays are great but are not passwords. CR7 is an ageing footballer, not a password. Iloveyou, maybe but not a password.
You can be much smarter than Basil Fawlty and still get hit by some incredibly smart cyber-scams. Phishing, Smishing, Vishing, and Ransomware targeting you all day and night on every channel. Email, Texts, Phone calls. Arm yourself & your staff. Fight back with awareness training.

Most cybercriminals are not that smart. They don't need to be because most organisations do not take cybersecurity threats seriously enough and nine out of ten (90%) hacks are down to human error. Fact!
The weakest link in cyber security is human error, especially in the inbox. Nine out of ten cyber breaches are down to a simple human mistake. Here's why it's vitally important to invest in an employee awareness programme for cyber security. The best investment you can make in cybersecurity, period!
