91% of attacks start with phishing
A single employee clicking a convincing fake email is all it takes to compromise your entire network. Firewalls and antivirus cannot stop a human who has been deceived.
Cyber Awareness Training | Durban & KZN
Your People Are Your Biggest Security Risk & Your Best Defence
Over 90% of successful cyberattacks start with a human error - a click on the wrong link, a password shared with the wrong person. Our hands-on cyber awareness training teaches your team to recognise and respond to real threats using South African examples they will actually remember.
Why Training Matters
Technology alone cannot protect your business
SA businesses are prime targets
South African employees receive among the highest volumes of phishing emails on the continent. Attackers use local banks, SARS, and SA Government impersonations that look convincing.
Awareness reduces incidents by up to 70%
Organisations that run regular security awareness training see dramatically fewer successful phishing and social engineering attacks within six months.
Our Training Process
How we deliver cyber awareness training
Practical, engaging, and tailored to your team. No a generic slideshow.
Step 1 - Needs Assessment
We start by understanding your team's current knowledge level, your industry's specific risks, and any incidents you have already experienced. This shapes a training session that is directly relevant.
Step 2 - Hands-On Session
A 2–3 hour interactive session (on-site in KZN or remote) covering phishing, password security, safe device usage, incident response, and South African-specific scams. Real examples, live demonstrations, and group exercises.
Step 3 - Certificates & Resources
Every attendee receives a certificate of completion. We also provide a quick-reference guide your team can keep at their desk and follow-up recommendations for ongoing awareness.
