What’s wrong with traditional security awareness training solutions?

tick box exercise

It feels like you're simply ticking the box

 

Training is overly compliance focused and frequently requires chasing, mandating or incentivising.

Out-of-the-box security awareness content is generic and often outdated.

You're not there when it matters

 

Training is out of context and infrequent making it quickly forgotten when it’s needed.

Interventions often delivered reactively after the fact, instead of proactively at point of risk.

 

You have little visibility of risky behaviours

 

When you don’t understand where risk lies, you can’t influence secure behaviour to create safer habits.

Not enough data to show ROI and demonstrate the value of the security team.

You’re 3 steps away from secure behaviour change

Trusted by employees and CISO’s nationwide

“Experienced CISOs know that phishing simulations have limited effect and that we can all fall for tricks when vulnerable; awareness campaigns only work for a short period before people forget the messages; and everyone hates computer based training!

What I like about Redflags® from ThinkCyber is that messages can be tailored and delivered “in-the-moment” as someone is about to do something risky.

Based on the psychology of how to change behaviour, Redflags® reminds people what good practice looks like as they undertake specific activities, but without actually preventing the activity and interrupting business.”

Ex CISO NHS, GSK, National Grid

“Every time I see Redflags® I fall in love a little bit more!

The combination of technology and behavioural science creates a tool that is impactful, increases accuracy and generates meaningful behavioural metrics”

Janette B.

GRC Analyst, IT Services Company

Redflags® is a truly extraordinary platform that will undoubtedly drive the way that all staff interpret their role as defenders, doing so both continuously and unobtrusively. When used to deliver content that centres on empowerment, I believe that this style of just-in-time intervention represents the current gold standard for continually developing the psychological capability element of security within an organisation.”

Simon Pavitt

Head of Cyber Awareness, Behaviours & Culture, MOD

“There isn’t another product on the market that does what Redflags® does apart from the old school annually pushed-out Cyber security training and that just wasn’t giving us the right results.

 

From the very start of our conversation to using the product, the Redflags® team have been professional, helpful and very quick at responding to questions as and when they came up”

Craig D.

IT Security Engineer, Maritime Transport Company

“Our people are busy, Redflags® allows us to provide training whilst they work and with minimal interruption. The repeated nature of the nudges allows us to change behaviours, not simply inform someone what a security threat is. We have also been able to target training towards specific teams based on incidents caused by their behaviours. Annual CBT style training pales in comparison. We are very happy with the wayRedflags® is improving our security behaviours.”

Why Companies Choose Redflags for Security Awareness Training’

Redflags® from ThinkCyber is a behavioural risk solution that diverts people away from high-risk activity, in the moment, to deliver a measurable reduction in operational risk.

At ThinkCyber our approach to security awareness training is to focus on nudge theory, a non-invasive and integrated approach to training. Think of it as a friendly tap on the shoulder for people before they do something risky – from clicking on a dodgy link to sharing a sensitive file outside the business.

By uniquely applying behavioural and learning science to create ongoing, contextual security awareness Redflags® has delivered meaningful outcomes for its clients, ranging from reductions in unknown sender clicks of 73% to boosting voluntary engagement rates of security comms to 90%.

This low friction way of reducing risky behaviour is not only quantifiable, but ongoing, needing little management overhead. Our clients find this a refreshing change from traditional cybersecurity training and simulations that can often be infrequent, passive and unengaging.
