Q.What is employee security awareness training?

Security awareness training teaches employees to recognize and avoid cyber threats — phishing emails, suspicious links, password sharing, unprotected devices. Most breaches start with human error, not technical flaws.

Q.Why is employee training important?

80% of cyber breaches involve human error. An untrained employee can't tell a phishing email from legitimate email. Training reduces this risk by 50–70%. It's the cheapest defense against major incidents.

Q.What topics should be covered?

Phishing recognition, password hygiene, multi-factor authentication, public WiFi risks, removable media security, social engineering, GDPR/compliance (if applicable), incident reporting.

Q.How often should training happen?

Quarterly is standard. Monthly phishing simulations keep it top-of-mind. Annual compliance training for regulated industries. Coreitech provides scheduled training + testing.

Q.Do we track who completed training?

Yes — complete reporting. Track completion rates, quiz scores, phishing simulation results, trending improvements. Useful for compliance audits and board reporting.

Q.How much does employee awareness training cost?

Coreitech includes security awareness training in managed IT support. Standalone training platforms cost £3–10 per user per month. Training saves far more than it costs by preventing breaches.
