Proofpoint Security Awareness Training

Tailored cybersecurity education

Assess

Step one is to establish your organization’s baseline and understand where your user cybersecurity knowledge and program gaps are. Proofpoint Security Awareness helps inform your program focus through knowledge assessments, culture assessments, and phishing simulation tests that are driven by our threat intelligence. And it integrates with Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) to give you insights into your top clickers and Very Attacked People™(VAPs) in real-world attacks.

Proofpoint helps you identify what your users know, what they would do when faced with threats, and how they feel about security. These factors help you adapt your security awareness program to fit your users’ unique needs.

You get:

  • Phishing/USB simulations based on real-world threats
  • Knowledge assessments
  • Culture assessments
  • Reports that identify your VAPs and top clickers

Change Behavior

The next step towards better cybersecurity awareness is changing unsafe behavior. With our unique adaptive learning framework, you can assign targeted, threat-driven training to your users. This tailored online cybersecurity education helps you drive behavior change by focusing on your users’ needs and their areas of weakness. And it builds upon their security awareness knowledge on a regular basis.

Integrating with the Proofpoint email security solution, you can provide contextual nudges, alert your users about uncertain emails, and allow them to report suspicious messages using email warning tags. You can also reinforce positive behavior by customizing feedback to users who report suspicious messages.
