Cyber Security Training
Thirty-two years of sectoral experience and scientific research both show that 92% of successful attacks in the IT sector succeed because of the human factor, not because the technology itself failed. People, not machines, are where most breaches truly begin.
No matter how advanced a technology system is, incorrect, unprotected, or careless use will sooner or later bring unwanted results. DEF24 recognizes that the human factor in IT environments must be addressed differently for system users and for system administrators, since each group carries different responsibilities and obligations. Mindful of the great responsibility this involves, DEF24 places significant emphasis on training activities that raise individual awareness and turn ordinary users into conscious, security-minded ones who protect both themselves and the organization around them.
System Users Training
DEF24 observes that end users remain vulnerable to hackers even when antivirus software and firewalls are in place, because they often lack sufficient knowledge of social engineering, password creation, basic GDPR rules, and safe password storage, the small details that keep both themselves and the system secure. DEF24 delivers practical training and awareness programs that explain, in plain terms, how to keep systems safe and how users can protect themselves while safeguarding company assets, so that good security habits become second nature rather than an afterthought.
DEF24 offers awareness training such as *My Safe Internet, Safe Informatics, Safe Data* at the primary, secondary, and high-school levels, helping young people build healthy digital habits from an early age. At the request of institutions, organizations, and communities, the awareness program *My Safe Data, Safe Informatics* shows users how to protect themselves, explains their rights and the obligations of organizations that process data under the GDPR, and includes hands-on studies on social engineering, so that participants can recognize manipulation when they encounter it.
System Administrators and Supervisors Training
The most important message in our training for system administrators and supervisors is a candid one: no single manager can hold deep expertise in law, informatics, networking, and software all at once, and no single system administrator can be equally expert in law, software, and cybersecurity. Recognizing these limits is the first step toward building a team that covers them.
For that reason, DEF24 raises system defense to its highest level by deepening the knowledge of the responsible parties through training on topics such as the GDPR, the company policies required for information security, the identification of overlooked points, and the resolution of errors, while reminding everyone involved that these goals are reached not by a single hero but by a well-coordinated team. The result is an organization where security becomes a shared, everyday responsibility.
