Employees can be
the weakest or strongest
link in security

90% of cyberattacks start with a human — phishing, error, or social engineering. We build modern cybersecurity competencies for your team: training, phishing tests, certificates, procedures, and development paths.

Support scope

What we offer HR teams in cybersecurity

From awareness training through phishing tests to data protection procedures. Complete support for building a security culture in the organization.

Cybersecurity training

Dedicated team training — for non-technical employees and IT specialists alike. We focus on threat recognition and safe behaviors in daily work.

Employee training →

Social engineering tests (phishing)

Controlled phishing attack simulations — we check who clicks, who provides data, and who responds correctly. The test result is a real picture of vulnerability, not survey fiction. Immediate education after the test.

Social engineering tests →

Knowledge verification and certificates

Knowledge passed to the team is verified by exams and tests. Employees who pass receive a certificate confirming cybersecurity competencies — a document useful for audits and compliance.

Cybersecurity awareness for non-specialists

Training not only for IT — for all employees vulnerable to social engineering: finance, accounting, board, secretariat. Simple language, engaging form, real examples from Polish companies.

Development paths and competency programs

We build complete competency development paths — a cycle of periodic training tailored to local realities and company specifics. Compliance requires regular training; we deliver it as a planned program.

Competency development →

Data protection procedures

We develop procedures describing how the organization processes and protects data — required by GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001. Accessible documents, ready for deployment and audit defense.

Data protection procedures →

Why it matters

Technology protects. So does an aware employee.

Companies invest millions in firewalls and EDR — and rightly so. But one employee clicking a phishing email can bypass all technical safeguards. That's why security awareness isn't an option — it's the foundation.

Phishing is getting harder to recognize

Spear-phishing attacks are personalized — the attacker knows your name, position, and sometimes the projects you're involved in. Traditional "don't click links" rules are no longer enough.

One-off training doesn't build habits

Training once a year results in forgetting within weeks. A regular training program and phishing tests build lasting habits — just like other compliance elements.

Regulations require documented training

NIS2, GDPR, ISO 27001, DORA — every regulation requires regular information security training for employees processing data. Certificates and reports confirm compliance during audits.

A security culture takes years to build

One phishing test does more than a year of training.

Employees learn from mistakes — most effectively from their own, in safe conditions. Simulated phishing is the best tool you have for changing behaviors in the organization.

FAQ

Questions about cybersecurity for HR teams

Over 90% of successful cyberattacks start with a human — phishing, pretexting, or user error. The IT team can deploy the best technical safeguards, but one click on a malicious link can bypass them all. Building security awareness is an HR process — changing behaviors, habits, and organizational culture. Exactly like health-and-safety training or compliance procedures.
Social engineering tests are controlled phishing attack simulations — we send crafted emails to employees and measure how many click the link, provide credentials, or execute a transfer. The test result shows the company's real vulnerability level — without fictional statistics from surveys. After the test we immediately educate those who fell for it — this is the most effective form of learning. Tests can be repeated to measure progress.
Yes — this is our main HR training area. Cyberhygiene training is designed specifically for non-specialists: how to recognize phishing, how to safely use company email and devices, how to respond to suspicious situations. The language is simple and engaging — no IT terminology employees don't know. We successfully train finance, accounting, administration, sales, and management teams.
Data protection procedures are a set of documents describing how the organization processes, protects, and shares personal and confidential data. Under GDPR, every company processing personal data should have them. The procedures define who has access to which data, how to respond to a security breach, and how to document events. They're also useful in ISO 27001, NIS2, and DORA audits.
We start with assessing the current awareness level — often through an initial phishing test. Based on the results we propose a training program tailored to the company: topics, format (workshops, e-learning, webinars), schedule, and target group. We deliver reports after each training and test, certificates for employees, and documentation for audits. We can run the program year-round as an external security awareness partner.
