User Awareness & Phishing Simulation

User Awareness Training and Phishing Simulation

Turn Your People into Your Strongest Security Layer

From Human Risk to Human Defence

Your employees are your first line of defence and often your greatest vulnerability. Apstorm’s Security Awareness Training and Phishing Simulation programme turns that risk into a measurable security advantage. Combining independent expertise with local UK delivery, we provide engaging, flexible training that builds real behavioural change across your organisation. Focused on today’s cyber threats, policies, and best practices, our continuous programme embeds a lasting culture of security—reducing risk and strengthening resilience over time

Human's... The Weakest Link!

Human error remains one of the leading causes of successful cyberattacks. Phishing, social engineering, and poor password hygiene continue to compromise even the most well-defended networks. CISOs and Compliance Managers face mounting pressure to demonstrate effective controls, yet traditional training often fails to engage or measure real progress.

Without effective engagement and insight, awareness efforts risk becoming a box-ticking exercise,  leaving organisations exposed to costly and preventable breaches.

  • Over 80% of data breaches stem from human factors.
  • Staff awareness programmes are often generic and forgotten within weeks.
  • Compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001, NCSC Cyber Essentials, and GDPR require ongoing evidence of awareness initiatives.
  • Reporting on culture change and risk reduction is difficult without clear metrics.

Security awareness training helps equip employees with the knowledge they need to combat these threats. Being taught what their employers consider risky or acceptable and the clues to look for that indicate threats, drives employee behaviour on how to respond when they see them.

The Human Defence Layer 

Today, security is everyone’s responsibility. Seemingly harmless behaviours or small mistakes can lead to big consequences. Security awareness training helps

get everyone on the same page, reduces risks and incidents, and helps the entire workforce protect their organisation and themselves.

Apstorm’s Security Awareness Training and Phishing Simulation programme is built to change behaviour, not just deliver content.

Developed by UK cybersecurity experts, it combines tailored learning journeys with adaptive phishing campaigns that evolve as your people learn. The platform provides continuous insight into user performance, enabling leaders to track improvement, demonstrate compliance, and drive a measurable reduction in human risk.

Drawing on proven models, Apstorm delivers:

  • Customisable campaigns aligned to your industry, size and risk profile.
  • Phishing simulations can be adapted to each user.
  • Automated reporting and analytics to evidence ROI and compliance progress.
  • Simple deployment, flexible pricing, and full UK-based support.

This is awareness training made practical, measurable, and easy to manage — empowering organisations to build sustainable security awareness across all teams.
