Build Better Security Habits Across Your Workforce
Security awareness training helps employees recognize suspicious emails, unexpected login requests, fraudulent messages, and other attempts to obtain sensitive information. A single annual course may satisfy a training requirement, but it does little to reinforce the decisions employees make throughout the year.
CISO Global manages an ongoing Security Awareness Training program that reinforces these skills throughout the year. We plan the training schedule, select relevant content, manage phishing simulations, track participation, review results, and recommend follow-up training based on employee performance and emerging risks.
Custom sessions can also address the roles, systems, regulatory requirements, and security concerns specific to your organization.

How Security Awareness Training Works
Assess Your Training Needs
We review your workforce, existing program, security concerns, reporting process, regulatory requirements, and available training tools.
Build the Program
Our team develops a training schedule, selects appropriate content, plans phishing simulations, and identifies groups requiring specialized instruction.
Deliver and Test
Employees receive scheduled training and phishing practice, along with clear guidance on how to identify and report suspicious activity.
Review and Refine
We review participation and results, report meaningful trends, and adjust future training based on the areas that need more attention.
When Security Awareness Training Is the Right Fit
Security Awareness Training can help when:
Training is limited to an annual course, with little reinforcement or realistic phishing practice throughout the year.
Internal staff do not have time to select content, schedule campaigns, and track completion.
Employees are unsure how or where to report suspicious activity.
Leadership needs clearer reporting on participation, behavior, and program progress.
Compliance, contractual, or customer requirements call for recurring employee security training.
Different roles, locations, or business units need training tailored to their responsibilities and risk exposure.
Why CISO Global for Security Awareness Training
Effective training requires more than access to a content library. Someone must decide what employees need to learn, keep the program moving, review the results, and address the areas where people continue to struggle.
CISO Global combines managed program support with access to cybersecurity, IT, compliance, and incident response professionals. Training can reflect the situations employees actually face and reinforce your organization’s policies, reporting procedures, compliance requirements, and security priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is security awareness training?
Security awareness training teaches employees how to recognize, avoid, and report cybersecurity threats. Common topics include phishing, social engineering, password and access security, handling sensitive information, remote work, mobile device use, and incident reporting.
What does CISO Global’s security awareness program include?
The engagement may include program planning, curated training content, phishing simulations, participation tracking, results reporting, role-based instruction, and follow-up training. The exact scope depends on your workforce, current tools, compliance needs, and internal resources.
How often should employees receive security awareness training?
Training should take place throughout the year rather than relying entirely on one annual course. The appropriate schedule depends on your organization’s risk, workforce, regulatory requirements, and previous program results.
Does CISO Global provide simulated phishing campaigns?
Yes. Phishing simulations give employees a controlled way to practice identifying and reporting suspicious messages. Results can also help determine where additional training is needed.
Can training be customized for different roles?
Yes. Training can address the different risks and responsibilities faced by employees, managers, executives, privileged users, and IT personnel. Custom sessions can reflect your industry, systems, policies, and business environment and may be delivered onsite or remotely. Interactive and game-based formats may also be available based on the engagement.
Can security awareness training support compliance requirements?
Security awareness training can help organizations address workforce-training requirements and maintain records for audits, assessments, and customer reviews. The specific requirements depend on the framework, regulation, or contract that applies to your organization.
How are training results reported?
Reporting may include training completion, phishing simulation results, employee reporting activity, recurring areas of difficulty, and progress over time. CISO Global reviews the findings and recommends where future training should focus.
Can Security Awareness Training be combined with other CISO Global services?
Yes. Security Awareness Training can be coordinated with Managed IT Services, vCISO Services, Managed GRC Services, incident response planning, and other cybersecurity programs. This helps align employee training with your policies, reporting procedures, technology environment, and compliance requirements.
