Take your first step toward raising information security awareness in your company:

Here at Hermeticon, we know most of our client’s resources are invested in technology.

However, studies show that 90% of all cyberattacks target the human factor. Rather than circumventing advanced security systems, it is much easier for

attackers to lure an employee into opening a seemingly-benign link or plugging an infected flash drive into a computer connected to your organization’s network.

Many think these methods only work in movies or are used by hackers in faraway countries. Still, these methods are very effective in real life and may well be used by your competitors to gain business intelligence.

Is your security system effective against cybersecurity attacks that target the human factor?

Creating information security systems, processes, and infrastructure is only one step. Without the right training to educate the users, the system will be ineffective, and your organization will remain exposed to information security threats.

Information security awareness training:

The first step is to design training sessions suited to your organization’s line of business, your work practices (e.g., whether and how you use laptops), and the types of threats you may face.

Raising your employees’ security awareness is not a one-off project but a continuous process. Every employee must complete their security training as part of the onboarding process, and refreshers must be held periodically.

We can raise your employees’ and executives’ information security awareness

Hermeticon’s experts are happy to share their knowledge to help your

executives and employees keep security awareness top of mind.

Employee training:

We can adapt the training to your needs. We will raise your employees’ and senior executives’ awareness of your business ecosystem’s security threats and legal and regulatory requirements. We can create training materials and slides suited to your needs and conduct group and one-on-one training sessions, including sessions for onboarding purposes.

Our training sessions are dynamic and filled with real-life examples.

Phishing tests:

Phishing is one of the attackers’ most common tactics to access your knowledge assets. Usually, this is done by luring employees to click on a link that introduces malware to their system.

We can teach your employees to spot the red flags of phishing emails. During a phishing test, we use a designated system that mass-emails a suspicious message to all your employees. Employees who fail the test by clicking on the link in the message receive immediate feedback and are redirected to an e-learning platform to refresh their knowledge on spotting phishing attacks.

Internal audits:

Training on its own is not enough. Completing the training does not

guarantee that the employee will behave correctly in a real-life situation.

Practices like clean-desk policies, locking physical records, and remembering to log out when leaving the workstation are fundamental to your security and require periodic audits and continuous monitoring.

After every audit we perform, we provide detailed feedback to management and conduct focused refreshers for employees who need them.

Physical penetration tests:

Physical penetration tests (PT or pen tests) simulate a scenario when an unauthorized person attempts to access sensitive areas within your organization. The tester impersonates a visitor or an employee and attempts to reach sensitive information (digital or physical records). When designing each test, we work closely with the client organization’s management to ensure we cover the specific threats the organization might face.

In conclusion:

With the training, audits, tests, and monitoring that Hermeticon offers, you can have peace of mind knowing that your people are ready to face potential threats to your organization’s sensitive data.

Our experts will tailor the activity to your organization’s needs and line of business.
