Security Awareness Training

Your People Are the
Biggest Security Risk.
And the Biggest Opportunity.

Most successful cyber attacks don't break through your technology — they go through your people. A phishing email, a weak password, an unsafe link clicked on a work laptop. Aursec's security awareness training turns your team from a vulnerability into a line of defence.

Technology Won't Save You If
Your People Aren't Trained

You can have the best firewall, the strongest passwords, and the most up-to-date software — and still get breached because someone clicked the wrong link.

95%

of Successful Breaches Involve Human Error

The vast majority of cyber incidents — from ransomware to data breaches — start with a human action. Training reduces that risk significantly.

3.4bn

Phishing Emails Sent Every Day

Phishing is the most common attack vector. Your staff receive them constantly. Training teaches them to recognise and report them before they cause damage.

£1,100+

Average Cost of a Breach for a Small Business

The financial impact of a breach goes beyond the immediate incident — reputational damage, client loss, and regulatory consequences follow. Training is a fraction of that cost.

Practical Training on the Threats
That Actually Target Your Business

No generic slides. Every session is grounded in real attack scenarios relevant to UK SMBs and delivered in plain English that your whole team can engage with.

Phishing & Social Engineering

How phishing attacks work, what they look like today, how to spot the signs in emails and messages, and what to do when something looks suspicious. Includes real examples relevant to your sector.

Password Security

Why passwords fail, how attackers crack them, and how to create and manage strong credentials. Covers password managers, MFA, and why reusing passwords across accounts is one of the highest risk behaviours in any organisation.

Safe Browsing & Device Use

Safe browsing habits, recognising malicious websites, the risks of personal use on work devices, and how to handle sensitive data on laptops, phones, and tablets.

Recognising & Reporting Incidents

What counts as a security incident, why early reporting matters, and how to report it internally. Staff who know how to escalate quickly are one of the most effective controls any business can have.

Remote Working Security

The specific risks of working outside the office — home networks, public WiFi, video calls, shared spaces, and how to work remotely without creating security gaps.

Training for Every Level
of Your Organisation

Security awareness isn't just for IT teams. The most common attack targets are finance, HR, and senior leadership — the people with access to the most sensitive systems and data.

All Staff

The baseline — every person in your organisation who uses a device or handles data. Covers the fundamentals in plain language that engages non-technical staff.

Senior Leadership & Board

Tailored for decision-makers — focused on the specific risks targeting executives, business email compromise, and their role in setting a security-conscious culture.

Finance & HR Teams

The highest-value targets in most organisations. Focused on invoice fraud, payroll redirection, credential theft, and handling sensitive personal data securely.

IT & Technical Staff

Beyond the basics — covering privileged access risks, social engineering targeting technical staff, and security culture within IT teams.

Training That Counts Toward
Your Certification

Security awareness training isn't just good practice — it's a requirement of several compliance frameworks your business may already need to meet.

1

Cyber Essentials

Cyber Essentials requires organisations to have appropriate security policies and that staff understand them. Documented training contributes to your evidence base for submission and renewal.

2

DSPT

The DSPT requires evidence of staff awareness and training as part of several outcomes. Aursec training sessions come with attendance records formatted for DSPT evidence requirements.

3

ISO 27001

ISO 27001 Annex A includes specific controls around information security awareness, education, and training. Regular documented training contributes directly to control evidence.

Could not be happier with the services provided by Aursec in supporting the IT of my Business. From initial engagement, Aursec worked with me to understand my requirements and ensured an efficient rollout of my Company's IT solution. They took the stress out of achieving CyberEssentials Plus certification and now are fully embedded with my organisation as a partner to deliver long term IT Service Support. Aursec would be a great option for any size business but are particularly valuable for smaller businesses that require that additional hands-on knowledge and experience.
