Why Cyber Security Training is Important
Your employees really are your first line of defence because technology alone can’t stop someone from clicking “Yes, I’d love to claim my inheritance from my mystery overseas relative!” A single phishing email or password like “password123” can scupper even the best security setup.
That’s where cyber security awareness training comes in, giving your team the skills and mindset to spot trouble before it spots them. Yorkshire-based Hamilton Group delivers tailored training for SMEs and regulated businesses, using real examples, actual case studies, and explanations that don’t require a computer science degree.
