Comar Cyber
As computer security software becomes better, hackers realize it’s easier to find employees who - due to lack of training, carelessness, or worse - can get them past a company’s security features. Today’s threats require a new type of defense: Human Factors Cybersecurity. Simply put, this is the knowledge and actions employees use to protect a computer network. It’s the one part of network security that employees can control.
Comar Cyber’s online and in-person courses were designed by former HUMINT ops officers, specialists in human factors. Comar trains corporate and government employees to defend against the most common and costly cyber-attacks: the ones that target people. Most hacks that result in corporate data loss, lawsuits, and the firing of IT and management staff don’t use exotic exploits directed by elite hackers. Instead, they start with social engineering techniques that can only be stopped by employees with cybersecurity awareness training.
Most cybersecurity awareness training programs are not effective because they’re boring box-checking exercises. Comar Cyber’s on-line training meets private sector and government standards for annual and new hire cybersecurity awareness training requirements while actively engaging employees with:
• Interactive scenarios
• Gamification elements
• An interesting “Learn by Hacking” ™ approach
• A graphic novel style geared to the demographics of most workplaces
Employees will learn cybersecurity fundamentals from the hacker’s point of view, across the six main vectors of cybersecurity where employees are typically targeted: social engineering, email, passwords & credentials, mobile devices, physical security, and insider threats. A compelling, interactive scenario serves as the final exam.
The only defense against the new human factors threat is human training. Comar Cyber’s staff knows how adversaries think because they’ve spent years beating them at their own game.
