With only 18% of businesses having had a form of cyber security awareness training in the last 12 months, it’s becoming more and more important to educate your employees on the risk cyber attacks have on your SME.
Our comprehensive, tailored annual training sessions and workshops are designed to fit your business and industry.
Importantly, you are required to have this training if you are: renewing your cyber insurance, renewing your cyber essentials certification or are required to provide evidence to a regulatory body.
Our security awareness training is designed to educate your team on the latest cyber attacks and how to defend against them.
Every day you’re likely to be the subject of a phishing attack. However, are your employees putting your business at risk by opening and clicking on things they’re not supposed to?
Or does your team know what to do when a breach has happened? Do you have an incident response plan in case a cyber criminal tries to hold you to ransome?
All big questions that are often overlooked. However, we have just the thing for this…
Our team of in-house cyber security experts are here to provide you with tailored, cost effective training for your small business.
Whether it’s the first time you’re undergoing cyber awareness training, or its time for a refresher, we can support you.
We start by understanding any incidents that may have happened in the last 12 months, we review your current HR and IT policies and make sure they’re up to standard, and then we create a bespoke training session for all employees that utilise a digital device in their day-to-day work.
Our sessions are geared towards helping you and your team understand cyber crime, organised crime, phishing attacks, mobile device security, storage, password management and much more.

Navigating the world of cyber security solutions can be complex, but at FTS, we believe in transparency and clarity.
Our streamlined process ensures that you are informed at every stage, setting clear expectations and delivering results that align with your business objectives.
Discovery Session: We begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand your unique business requirements, existing cyber security infrastructure, and specific data protection needs. We also outline what training has been completed historically and what may need to be covered.
Testing Your Team: A practical way we approach training is by simulating phishing attacks to gauged your team’s response. We’ll be able to identify key members of the team who may require that extra level of support when spotting and stopping cyber attacks.
Topic & Session Design: We’ll implement a tailored training session package, which aims to cover all important core topics as well as bespoke topics that your team may not be aware of. As part of this, we’ll also provide you with a dark web analysis to showcase what passwords are currently available on the dark web for your business.
Go Live: Once a date and time is confirmed, we’ll contact your team to make them aware of what to expect from the training. A member of our team will either deliver the training remotely online or in-person, whichever is preferred by you. Once the session concludes, we’ll send around a survey and a host of free resources your staff can refer back to at any time.
SMEs often face significant cyber security risks due to limited resources and expertise in managing security. Training employees helps reduce these risks by making them aware of security threats and teaching them how to avoid and mitigate potential incidents.
Effective training should cover a range of topics, including password security, identifying phishing attempts, safe internet practices, mobile device security, the importance of regular software updates, and how to report suspected security incidents.
It is recommended to conduct initial training upon hiring new employees, followed by regular updates and refreshers at least annually. Best practices also suggest incorporating ongoing awareness activities, such as newsletters, reminders, and simulated phishing exercises.
Candidly, there are a lot of IT companies in our area who aren’t recommending security at all. But that’s ignoring the threats around us and is a tremendous disservice to their clients.
Here at FTS, we’d rather be up front about the challenges facing us. We’ve worked very hard to find solutions that are budget friendly, especially when you consider the cost of downtime or lost reputation due to a breach.
First, data is often more valuable than you realise, when sold on the dark web. Would your #1 competitor pay £10,000 for your business plans, acquisition plans, or marketing strategy? Would someone pay for your usernames and passwords, so they can log into your network without your knowledge? Quite possibly.
But in the case of ransomware, the criminal doesn’t want your data. But they know that YOU value your data and will pay to get it back if they encrypt it. That’s why our solution comes with specific ransomware protection.
