We’re excited to share the December edition of our Tech Insider newsletter, packed with practical advice, the latest tech updates, and a celebration of our team’s recent success.

Rethink Your Phishing Training

Let’s be honest: traditional phishing training isn’t working. Most businesses still rely on an annual online course, but cyber criminals haven’t slowed down. Phishing remains responsible for around 15% of all data breaches, and the old “tick-the-box” approach just isn’t changing behaviour.

This month’s newsletter explains why it’s time to make phishing training a regular, engaging part of your company culture. Think interactive, bite-sized learning, friendly competition, and a supportive environment where everyone feels comfortable reporting suspicious emails. The right training, backed by solid technology like two-factor authentication, can make all the difference.

If your phishing training hasn’t changed in years, now’s the time to shake things up. Your people, and your data, deserve better protection.
