Security Awareness Training

CYBERSECURITY

Security Awareness Training — Your Team Is Either Your Strongest Defense or Your Biggest Vulnerability

The best firewall, endpoint protection, and email security on the market — and one employee clicking a phishing link bypasses all of it. Brivy IT deploys Phin security awareness training that actually changes behavior.

The problem with most security training: it doesn’t work. Annual slide decks about password hygiene don’t change behavior. Employees sit through mandatory training, pass the quiz, and go right back to clicking links. The company checks the box. Nobody is more secure.

Effective training is ongoing, realistic, and measurable. Phin delivers regular phishing simulations testing real-world attack patterns, immediate coaching when someone clicks, and short training modules that build habits over time.

Why Phin

Phin is the security awareness platform we deploy because it focuses on behavioral outcomes, not just completion rates.

Automated Phishing Simulations

Phin runs continuous, automated simulations using current real-world attack templates — credential harvesting, BEC impersonation, malicious attachments, and urgency lures.

Immediate Coaching

When someone clicks, they get instant, friendly feedback explaining what they missed. No shaming — just education that sticks.

Adaptive Training

Phin's training adapts to each employee's risk level. Higher-risk users get more frequent simulations and targeted modules.

Compliance Training

HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and general cybersecurity modules with tracked completion, quiz scores, and certificates for auditors.

Risk Scoring

Track susceptibility by employee and department over time. Target additional training where it's needed most.

Executive Reporting

Monthly reports: click rates, reporting rates, training completion, trends — proving ROI and identifying persistent risk.

FROM THE FIELD

A 60-person financial services firm started with a baseline phishing simulation: 34% clicked the link, 22% entered credentials. After six months of Phin — monthly simulations with coaching and quarterly modules — click rate dropped to 4% and reporting rate jumped from 8% to 61%. The shift wasn’t just technical knowledge. Employees started questioning unexpected emails by default.

Why Most Training Programs Fail

Annual training isn’t enough. Humans forget within weeks without reinforcement. Monthly touchpoints keep awareness active.

Generic training doesn’t stick. Modern attacks look exactly like real emails. Training needs to show what attacks actually look like.

Fear-based training backfires. Punishing clicks teaches people to hide mistakes. Phin uses positive coaching so employees report immediately when real incidents happen.

Employee Satisfaction
GREAT FIT IF YOU…
  • Employees haven't received formal security training
  • Need training for HIPAA, PCI, or compliance
  • Phishing emails have tricked employees
  • Want measurable improvement in security behavior
  • Cyber insurance requires awareness training
NOT THE BEST FIT IF YOU…
  • Fewer than 5 employees, prefer one-on-one coaching
  • Already running a mature program and just need a simulation platform

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are simulations?
Phin runs continuous automated simulations — typically 1–2 per month per employee with varying difficulty and attack types.
What happens when someone fails?
Immediate, friendly coaching — not punishment. Repeated failures trigger additional targeted training.
Does this satisfy compliance?
Yes. HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and general cybersecurity modules with tracked completion and certificates.
How long are training modules?
5–10 minutes each. Short enough to complete, focused enough to retain, frequent enough to compound.
Can simulations be customized?
Phin automatically uses current real-world attack patterns. We can also configure industry-specific and vendor-specific scenarios.
