While your office may have robust security measures in place, it’s essential to consider the security of employees who work remotely from home. Are their home networks adequately protected? Moreover, employees may also work while traveling, on holiday, or from rental locations. In short, it’s crucial not to focus solely on the office environment.
It’s essential to be aware of the risks that exist beyond the office. By utilizing a secure business VPN connection through Guardey, the location of work becomes irrelevant. With Guardey’s secure VPN, employees can stay safe and remain invisible to cybercriminals, no matter where they work or connect to the network. Protecting your data should extend beyond the office, ensuring comprehensive security for all remote working scenarios. And the best of all, you have insights in all the risk that are coming through the VPN tunnel.
While implementing robust technological measures like virus scans, strict firewalls, and business VPNs can make it challenging for cybercriminals, it’s important to acknowledge that human actions can still pose significant risks. Clicking on malicious links, downloading contaminated files, or inserting infected USB sticks can bypass even the most advanced security systems. Surprisingly, 95% of hacks and data breaches occur due to human activity.
To address this critical vulnerability, it is crucial to raise awareness among all employees in your public sector organization about the risks and dangers of working online. One effective approach is to engage employees in a weekly cyber security awareness challenge facilitated by Guardey. This initiative helps educate and reinforce good cybersecurity practices, ensuring that your workforce remains vigilant and well-informed about potential threats. By combining technology with a proactive human-focused approach, you can significantly enhance your organization’s overall cybersecurity posture.

“We’re a competitive bunch, so that’s a nice touch. These gamification elements make it fun to play Guardey, which also helps us to remember the information.”

Team LeadGamification 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 user’s 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.
