Cybersecurity Awareness Training

You’ve invested in firewalls, antivirus software, and endpoint security – but have you trained your employees to spot phishing emails, avoid social engineering attacks, and handle sensitive data securely?

88% of data breaches involve human error – employees clicking malicious links, reusing weak passwords and falling for phishing scams.

And the cost? UK businesses have lost over £44 billion to cyberattacks in the last five years according to Reuters.

At SJ Systems, we train your employees to become your strongest line of defence instead of your weakest link. Our expert-led or self-paced cybersecurity training ensures your team can:

    • Identify and stop phishing attacks.
    • Prevent data breaches and security incidents.
    • Stay compliant with GDPR, CyberEssential, CyberEssentials Plus and other regulation

Why Cyber Security Awareness Training Is So Important

You would think the majority of cyberattacks are out of your control, right? Well, you’d be wrong. According to a joint study from security company Tessian and Stanford University Professor Jeff Hancock, 88% of data breaches come from employee accidents.

Still think employee cybersecurity training isn’t a priority? Here’s what happens when businesses ignore the human factor in security:

1. Fines & Legal Issues

If your business suffers a data breach and it’s found that employees weren’t properly trained, you could face GDPR fines of up to £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover.

And these aren’t just theoretical fines though – real businesses have already been hit:

British Airways was fined £20 million after hackers stole 400,000 customer records, partially due to staff security failings.

Marriott Hotels was fined £18.4 million for failing to prevent a 339-million people data breach.

2. Downtime & Lost Revenue

If your systems are locked by ransomware or your network is compromised, you’re losing money every second.

Small businesses lose an average of £2,240 per cyberattack – but for larger companies, this can run into six-figure losses.

Downtime from a cyberattack can last days or even weeks, with every hour offline costing businesses thousands.

3. Reputation Damage & Lost Customers

Once your company makes the headlines for a cyberattack, it’s almost impossible to rebuild trust.

66% of customers won’t return after a cyber incident—especially if their personal data was compromised.

Studies show that businesses take years to recover financially from a reputation-damaging data breach.

Consumers are more security-conscious than ever, and they expect businesses to take cybersecurity seriously.

The Solution? Our Employee Cybersecurity Training

Our cybersecurity awareness training goes beyond just lecturing employees – it’s a hands-on, interactive programme designed to prevent real-world cyberattacks. We test them with live phishing simulations and real-world scenarios to ensure they can identify and stop threats before they cause damage.

Here’s what we cover in our employee cybersecurity training sessions:

Phishing Prevention

84% of cyberattacks start with a phishing email. Hackers send fake emails to trick employees into clicking malicious links or handing over passwords.

  • How to spot phishing emails (red flags, fake sender addresses, urgent-sounding language).
  • Live phishing attack simulations—we send fake phishing emails to test employee awareness.
  • What to do when a phishing attempt is detected (reporting procedures, risk mitigation).

Social Engineering Attacks

Cybercriminals don’t just rely on malware – they manipulate employees into handing over sensitive data. This is called social engineering, and it’s one of the most dangerous types of cyberattacks.

  • How attackers trick employees into revealing sensitive information (fake IT support calls etc.).
  • How to verify requests for financial transactions or sensitive data.
  • Real-world case studies of social engineering attacks and how they could have been prevented.

Password Security & Multi-Factor Authentication

Weak passwords and credential reuse are among the biggest security risks for businesses. According to Verizon’s 10th Edition Data Breach Investigations Report, over 81% of hacking-related breaches occur due to stolen or weak passwords.

  • Best practices for strong passwords (password managers, unique passwords for every account).
  • Why MFA is critical and how to use it effectively.
  • How attackers steal passwords (brute force attacks, credential stuffing, keyloggers).

Data Protection & GDPR Awareness

Failing to properly protect customer and employee data can result in heavy GDPR fines and lawsuits.

  • What GDPR means for employees – how to handle sensitive data securely.
  • How to prevent data breaches through encryption, access control, and secure file sharing.
  • GDPR compliance best practices to avoid costly fines.

Incident Response

Even the most security-conscious businesses can still experience cyber incidents. The difference between a minor issue and a full-blown crisis depends on how quickly employees recognise and report threats.

  • How to report suspicious activity and escalate security concerns.
  • Steps to take if an employee clicks on a phishing link (password changes, security checks).
  • How to contain a cyber incident and prevent it from spreading.

Why Choose SJ Systems?

At SJ Systems, we don’t just train your employees – we turn them into your first line of defence.

Work Directly with Cybersecurity Experts - Not Generic IT Trainers

Most security training is dry, outdated, and delivered by general IT professionals - but we do things differently. Training is led by real cybersecurity specialists, not just IT instructors. Get expert insights tailored to your business and industry. Ongoing support and guidance

Training That’s Engaging, Not Just Informational

Most security awareness training is boring, which means employees tune out and forget everything in a week. We keep it interactive, engaging, and built for real-world impact. We believe employees learn best when training feels real. That’s why we use hands-on, practical methods - not just slideshows and theory.

Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late…

 

Your business could be one click away from a costly cyberattack.

Every day, hackers send out millions of phishing emails, hoping that just one employee makes a mistake. Are your employees trained to spot the threats?

Ask Yourself:

✔ If a phishing email landed in your employee’s inbox right now, would they recognise it?

✔ Does your team know how to prevent social engineering attacks?

✔ Are your employees following security best practices – or putting your business at risk?
