Transform Your Workforce into a Cyber-Resilient Defence System

Turn Human Risk into Your Strongest Asset with Tailored Cyber Security Workshops and Training Programs

Your Potential Cyber Security Asset?

Phishing, insider threats, and everyday security missteps expose businesses to significant risks. As a CISO, IT Director, Security Officer, or Manager of Information Security, you know that even the most advanced technology can’t fully protect your organisation if your people aren’t prepared.

But there’s good news: instead of being a significant risk, your people can become a valuable safeguard, capable of actively identifying and preventing threats before they become incidents. This cyber-safe culture begins with behavioural transformation.

Gain expert guidance for your cyber security journey. Whether you want to take the first steps with employee e-learning and cyber awareness workshops, or you’re ready to create a human firewall with our integrated approach–we’re here to provide the tailored, proven solutions you need.

Our Approach

Leadership and Culture: A Shared Responsibility

Cyber security is everyone’s job. We engage both formal and informal leaders within your organisation to foster a culture of responsibility where every employee—from entry-level to executive—plays a part in safeguarding your assets.

Optimised Security Practices

Effective cyber security doesn’t have to be complex. Gain tailored interventions that make the “safe” choice the easy choice for your employees by automating and simplifying processes. This helps integrate security seamlessly into your team’s everyday actions. Read more about our holistic approach to risk management.

 

 

 

Scientifically-Validated Assessments

Before you can address your risks, you need to understand them. With our Cyber Behaviour Scan, you get a comprehensive, scientifically-backed analysis of your employees’ real-world behaviours, knowledge gaps, and the cultural factors that influence their actions. These insights allow you to pinpoint vulnerabilities and prioritise the right interventions.

Boots-on-the-Ground Expertise

Northwave’s in-house experts handle real-world cyber incidents every day. We bring this direct experience into our workshops and training. Get more than just theory—we provide actionable, real-world insights that you can immediately implement to strengthen your defences.

 

What our clients say

“The ‘How to be a human firewall’ workshops by Northwave were not only fun and engaging but also very practical and sparked thought-provoking discussions amongst our colleagues. It was eye-opening to learn about the methods used by cyber criminals and how quickly they can crack passwords. The insights opened up a whole new world of cyber safety for us, making our investment into the trainings truly invaluable. Practical tools were also shared to help everyone cultivate cyber safe behaviour.”

"The workshop Leadership in Cyber Security increased the urgency for cyber security, in particular recognising and reporting phishing  
e-mails. Our leaders felt a sense of urgency, due to the discussions in the session and came up with concrete actions they can take to motivate their teams. They now have the tools they need to be  
ambassadors for cybersecurity within our organisation."
