Phishing

  • 15 Minutes
  • For all staff
  • jurisdiction UK

This 15-minute express module covers what phishing is, how to spot the signs of an attempt, and how to protect both the individual and the organisation. It also gives practical guidance on what to do when someone realises they have fallen for one, which is the point at which speed matters more than anything else.

Phishing is how most breaches begin, and the messages have improved enormously with better tooling behind them. The decisive factor is rarely whether someone clicked but how quickly they said so. Training that removes the embarrassment around reporting shortens that gap, and short modules can be repeated often enough to keep pace with techniques that change every few months.

All their help was been very appreciated and I couldn't have asked them to do any more for us. I would recommend Skillcast to anyone looking to bring in new training modules to their organisation.
