Awareness
Program
People remain the most exploited attack vector, and no technical control fixes that. Our awareness programme actively reduces the human risk with a continuous annual cycle in three stages: Launch, Strengthen and Embed.
With the Outkept platform, monthly phishing simulations, interactive training and live hacking demonstrations we build measurably safer behaviour. One subscription, one annual rhythm, lasting results.
One annual training does not work, the knowledge fades within weeks.
A once-a-year session gets ticked off and forgotten. By the time a real phishing mail arrives, most of what employees learned is long gone.
Our programme works with touchpoints all year round.
Phishing simulations feel like setting traps for employees.
When a click leads to blame or a call from IT, people feel caught out instead of trained. They stop trusting the programme and are less likely to report something suspicious.
We build a positive culture.
You cannot demonstrate that awareness has an effect.
Attendance lists and completion rates show who took part, not whether behaviour changed. When management asks what the budget delivered, you have no clear answer.
The first campaigns establish a baseline against which the whole programme is measured.
What can you expect?
Fully automated through Outkept, with templates from a community of ethical phishers, locally relevant and of high quality.
Four interactive quarterly sessions plus workshops in which a real attack is shown live, from both the victim's and the attacker's perspective.
Short courses, videos and quizzes with gamification, plus a branded content package in your corporate identity and a monthly tips mail.
Progress against the baseline, a human vulnerability assessment per department and a proposed roadmap for year two.
Transforming phishing awareness training
ACEN runs automated phishing simulations that are realistic, locally relevant and written by a global community of ethical phishers. The campaigns run without manual work, and a real-time dashboard shows how employee alertness improves over time.
How we build the
programme
- Launch
- Strengthen
- Embed
- Compare
Launch The foundation
A kick-off with management aligns the programme with your organisation: target audiences, communication strategy and integration with existing initiatives. We deploy Outkept, connect it to Entra ID for effortless user management and place the report button in the mail client. The first campaigns establish the baseline.
Strengthen From awareness to action
Quarterly training sessions address the vulnerabilities we observe in your environment. Every session is followed by a live hacking demonstration, because whoever sees what happens on the hacker’s screen understands why certain behaviour is risky.
Embed Anchoring it in the culture
Quarterly meetings review the metrics and adjust the plan. The learning platform, the awareness content and the monthly tips keep the rhythm going, so that safe behaviour becomes a habit instead of a campaign.
Compare Year-end & year two
The year closes with a report that compares performance against the baseline, including benchmark data and a human vulnerability assessment per department. An on-site stakeholder presentation gives management the achievements, the remaining risks and the priorities for year two.
- One subscription, everything included
Programme management, the platform licence, all workshops and training sessions and the full reporting cycle sit in one annual subscription. Predictable for you, with no surprises.
