ESET launches Cybersecurity Awareness Training

With the launch of Cybersecurity Awareness Training, ESET responds to one of the main problems for business owners – low cybersecurity skills among employees that can lead to costly breaches and reputation losses. At the same time, ESET Cybersecurity Awareness Training helps organisations meet compliance and insurance requirements.

“ESET understands that educated employees are the foundation of a cyber resilient organisation,” said Michal Jankech, ESET vice president of Enterprise, SMB & MSP. “We created ESET Cybersecurity Awareness Training, which doesn’t merely check a box for compliance but changes employees’ behaviour through industry-leading engagement, gamification, and cybersecurity context. Using more than 30 years of research and in-house training experience, our experts deliver a top-tier education suitable for workers at all business levels.”

Businesses can reinforce the training using realistic phishing attack simulations via the phishing simulator. This tool helps organisations to run an unlimited number of phishing tests using hundreds of regularly updated templates or to create their own simulation. The phishing simulator thus allows companies to test their employees with real-world scenarios and adjust their training plans accordingly.

ESET also reduced all necessary IT administration duties typically associated with employees’ trainings to a minimum. The deployment is easy thanks to deep integrations with many popular third-party, cloud-based services, and a full API. Whether employees are using Learning Management Systems (LMS), Single-Sign-On (SSO), Customer Relationship Management Systems (CRMS), or Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS), ESET can sync with businesses’ existing workflows.

An easy-to-use dashboard gives IT admins an overview of available courses, statistics about employees’ training progress, and phishing campaign simulation results. Admins also can organise employees in specific customisable groups so they can prepare campaigns and training enrolments tailored to the needs of both employees and their superiors.

All these features follow the ESET commitment to a prevention-first strategy that combines attack surface minimisation and reduction of the cyber defence complexity. ESET Cybersecurity Awareness Training covers most human-related attack vectors, and its smooth deployment and management help to keep cybersecurity simple.
