Research shows that between 80 and 90% of cybersecurity breaches are caused by human error - which means that up to 90% of breaches could be avoided with clear and dedicated employee training.
We recommend that all businesses with more than two employees have a cybersecurity plan that includes employee training options to enhance cybersecurity awareness and equip all workers with what they need to avoid falling victim to a cyber attack.
Cybersecurity Services
Comprehensive cybersecurity services help businesses stay resilient against modern cyber threats.
A multi-layered security approach should include:
- Detection
- Prevention
- Real-time monitoring
Every organisation has specific security needs depending on how they operate, and employees are a large part of detecting cybersecurity issues - employee training is a large part of prevention.
CyberSecure 2023 - built-in defence
The EPX CyberSecure package is an all-encompassing security solution that integrates seamlessly into the existing infrastructure of a business, and is an option for all of our clients.
It offers robust protection through layers, including managed firewalls, device encryption, and 24/7 threat monitoring, ensuring that data and networks are protected around the clock.
This multi-faceted stack solution is ideal for businesses looking to elevate their defences and maintain secure operations without sacrificing performance.
But we would advise that, on top of the protection provided by this package, training for employees is a focus.
Cyber Essentials Certification
Cyber Essentials is a simple but effective, government-backed scheme that helps to protect an organisation against a wide range of common cyber attacks - one that is adopted by many businesses.
We provide a Cyber Essentials Certification service so that our teams can guide you through the entire process, ensuring you have:
- Secure cloud and server configurations.
- Security scanning software.
- Appropriately protected network devices (inc. switches, firewalls & access points).
- Appropriate user account management.
- Everything required to meet certification standards.
With Cyber Essentials accreditation, your business will be covered against 80% of common cyber threats, ensuring strong protection from cyberattacks. But when it comes to human error…your business may still be at risk.
Cybersecurity Training
The impact of training on cybersecurity - and productivity - is huge, which is why we provide cybersecurity training to our clients. A training programme would be designed to:
- Deliver uniformed company-wide training on cyber security best practices.
- Provide regular phishing tests – this involves sending fake phishing tests to employees and seeing who ‘clicks’ so employees who may need further training can be identified.
- Report on security risks and breaches to end-users and the board.

Book a Cybersecurity Assessment
Many businesses believe they are secure but often have vulnerabilities that go unnoticed. You may have a powerful firewall, but no computer encryption, or you use antivirus software without enforcing strong password policies.
If you feel your business would benefit from a cybersecurity assessment to help you identify weak spots and ensure you are protected, please do get in touch with us today.
