One-Off Campaigns Fail to Build Cybersecurity Habits

A single burst of training fades quickly once reminders stop and the day-to-day inbox takes over, according to Vigilance Signal. Most employees can identify phishing emails, but few notice when they are specially crafted. Awareness Month raises the profile of the topic, but cannot build the habit of pausing, checking and reporting under real pressure.

Four things separate programmes that cultivate a culture of security from programmes that are designed only to tick a compliance box, Vigilance Signal claims. These include repetition, a simple plan, a rhythm, and a platform that automates the delivery rhythm.

Vigilance Signal offers a platform that can have an entire workflow configured and running in under 15 minutes. It includes simulations, in-the-moment coaching, short training modules, and one-click reporting, and can be tailored to the local context.
