With Guardey, all employees work securely online and tenants' data is protected from cybercrime quickly and easily.
No payment information needed.
At the office, you may already have security well in place. But what about all the employees who work from home? Is their home network just as well secured? Or maybe many employees also work on the road, on holiday or log in from rental locations. In short, all kinds of reasons not to think only about the office.
Be aware of the risks, even outside the office. With the secure VPN connection used with Guardey, it doesn’t matter at all where someone works. The employee is always safe online and invisible to criminals on the network.
Of course, you make it as difficult as possible for cybercriminals with technology. A good virus scan, a strict firewall, a business VPN and so on. But despite all the technology, it is still possible for someone to click on the wrong link, get a contaminated file or insert the wrong USB stick into a computer. Because did you know that 95% of hacks and data breaches are due to human activity.
Therefore, also make sure that all employees of your housing corporation are aware of all the risks and dangers of working online. Have employees do a weekly cyber security awareness challenge with Guardey.
Trusted by thousands of businesses to provide 24/7 protection in an affordable and user-friendly manner. Your business data and operations are shielded from cyber threats, whether your team works at the office, at home, or remotely.
Housing associations are very interesting to hackers. Why?
This is interesting to have for identity fraud, but also on ransom demand so criminals do not disclose it.
These days, staff often work from home or on the road. Here, security is often less well organised than in the office, making it still easy for criminals to get in.
With the tightness in the housing market, you will be busier than ever. As a result, employees sometimes do not give enough thought to the risks and dangers of working online. Let them become aware of this.
âThe uptick in training participation has been fantastic. Employees have even set up their own little Guardey competitions internally. So we have the company-wide leaderboard, but the teams themselves are now even having their little competitions in Microsoft Teams group chats. Guardey has brought out the competitive nature in them.â

âOur cyber insurance company AIG requires us to train our staff. They really like the fact that we use Guardey because you train every week and you learn about a wide range of different cyber security topics.â

âTogether with the Guardey team, we came up with an email centered around a Christmas gift voucher that we send out every year. I was curious about how our employees would react. It turns out that quite a few employees clicked the phishing link and even entered personal data. This made it clear that we had to start training security awareness.â

âGuardey doesnât require a lot of time investment from users. We strictly looked at that because many of the teachers already have full calendars. One Guardey challenge takes no more than 5 minutes.â

IT Policy OfficerGamification is adding game elements into non-game environments, such as security awareness training, to increase participation and foster active learning.
Traditional security awareness training can often be dry and boring. With gamification, the complex subject matter is transformed into an engaging and memorable experience.
By integrating game elements such as challenges, quizzes and rewards, it incentivizes users to actively learn. This makes the training more enjoyable and fosters a sense of competition and achievement. This combination drives better retention and application of cyber security knowledge.
Research shows that up to 90% of the learnings from yearly or even quarterly training are forgotten within a few weeks. Guardey was built to keep its users aware of cyber threats 365 days a year. The game comes with short, weekly challenges that slowly builds up the userâs knowledge and eventually drives lasting behavior change.
Guardey covers a wide array of topics to train users about all currently relevant cyber threats, put together in collaboration with ethical hackers and educationalists. The topics covered include phishing, remote work, password security, CEO fraud, ransomware, smishing, and much more.
Every challenge takes up to three minutes to complete.
Yes. ISO27001, NIS2, and GDPR all require that all employees receive appropriate security awareness training. Guardey is always up-to-date with the latest cyber threats, policies, and procedures.
Cybersecurity awareness training is crucial for all employees, not just specific roles. Every staff member can potentially be a target or an unwitting entry point for cyber attacks. Training helps create a security-focused culture and minimizes risks for the entire organization.
While certain roles may require specialized training, a foundational level of training should be accessible to everyone.
Guardey is available in English, Dutch, Italian, French, Spanish, German, Polish, Swedish and Danish.
