SECURITY AWARENESS TRAINING PROGRAM

Empowering Your Team to Defend Against Cyber Threats

Technology alone cannot secure your organisation. Your people play a vital role in protecting systems, data, and operations. Yet, many breaches occur due to human error, whether through phishing, weak passwords, or mishandling sensitive information.

NSAA Security offers tailored Security Awareness Programs to help organisations build a security-conscious culture. Our approach combines practical training, engaging content, and measurable outcomes to reduce risk, meet compliance obligations, and improve staff confidence.

 

Why Security Awareness Is Essential

Cyber threats continue to evolve, and attackers often target the weakest link — people. With remote work, cloud services, and mobile devices now common, organisations must ensure that all staff understand their security responsibilities.

An effective awareness program helps your organisation:

  • Prevent data breaches caused by avoidable mistakes

  • Improve your compliance with ISO 27001, CPS 234, and other regulations

  • Strengthen internal reporting and reduce response times

  • Create a security-first mindset across all departments

  • Build trust with clients, partners, and regulators

Security is everyone’s responsibility. Our training helps make that mindset part of your everyday culture.

 

What NSAA’s Program Includes

We offer a range of services that can be delivered as a one-off training engagement or as part of an ongoing security awareness program.

Tailored Awareness Program Design

We work with you to understand your industry, business processes, and risk profile. Based on this, we create a program that speaks directly to your workforce and addresses real scenarios relevant to your operations.

In-Person or Virtual Training Sessions

Delivered by Australian cybersecurity professionals, our workshops focus on practical, real-life examples. They cover essential topics such as:

  • Phishing and social engineering

  • Password management and MFA

  • Working securely from home

  • Recognising suspicious emails or links

  • Secure data handling and sharing

  • Reporting procedures for suspected incidents

These sessions are interactive, role-specific, and delivered at the appropriate technical level.

 

Simulated Phishing Campaigns

We test how your staff respond to phishing emails by sending safe but realistic simulations. This helps identify areas for improvement, and we provide full reporting with recommendations.

 

Online Learning Modules

We offer self-paced training through our learning management system or can integrate with your own. Modules are short, engaging, and easy to complete without disrupting daily work.

 

Internal Awareness Campaigns

NSAA can design posters, digital banners, email templates, and intranet content to reinforce key security messages. These tools keep awareness alive beyond the training sessions.

Executive and Board Awareness

Senior leaders often face unique threats and high-value targets. We offer tailored briefings and risk-based awareness sessions to help your leadership team make informed decisions and set the tone from the top.

 

Supporting Compliance and Best Practices

Our awareness programs are aligned with security and privacy standards to support audit readiness and ongoing compliance. These include:

  • ISO/IEC 27001 and Annex A.6.3 – Security awareness and training

  • NIST 800-53 and Cybersecurity Framework

  • ISM Guidelines by the Australian Signals Directorate

  • APRA CPS 234 – Awareness for financial and insurance organisations

  • The Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) – Proper handling of personal data

  • PCI DSS – Cardholder data protection awareness

We also help you document training attendance, policy acknowledgements, and learning outcomes to satisfy audit and regulatory requirements.

 

Who Is It For?

Our training is tailored to suit different roles and levels across your organisation, including:

  • General staff and new starters

  • IT and technical teams

  • Human resources and finance staff

  • Executives and board members

  • Contractors and temporary workers
