Delivery

Cybersecurity training delivery covers the methods and platforms used to roll out security education, policy acknowledgment, and phishing simulations across an organization. Modern training management systems consolidate these functions into a single reportable workflow.

About this video

Delivering cybersecurity training requires selecting the right mechanism for the audience and environment. Organizations can choose from in-person instruction, synchronous online sessions, or fully asynchronous formats where learners access video content on demand through a learning management system. Each approach has practical trade-offs, and many enterprises use a combination depending on role, location, or risk level. Beyond simply hosting training content, purpose-built security awareness platforms consolidate several critical functions. They serve as a central repository for organizational policies, allowing employees to review documents and provide digital acknowledgment on a scheduled or as-needed basis — ensuring a clear, auditable record of who has agreed to what and when. Compliance training requirements are also handled within these platforms, streamlining annual or recurring obligations. These systems further support simulated phishing campaigns, sending realistic but harmless test emails to employees and measuring whether recipients click malicious-looking links or correctly identify and report the threat. Integrated reporting ties all of these functions together, giving security and compliance teams visibility into training completion rates, policy acknowledgment status, and phishing simulation results — providing a comprehensive picture of the organization's human-layer security posture.

Key terms

Phishing
A social engineering attack that uses deceptive emails or messages to trick users into revealing sensitive information.
Security Policy
A formal document that defines an organization's security goals, rules, and responsibilities.
Compliance Training
Structured instruction that ensures employees understand and adhere to organizational policies, regulations, and legal requirements.
Phishing Simulation
A controlled exercise that sends fake phishing emails to employees to test and reinforce their ability to recognize and report phishing attempts.
Asynchronous Training

Transcript

Once we've developed our cybersecurity training, we're going to have to deliver that training. It's time for delivery.

There's several mechanisms that we can use to deliver training, whether it's in-person training, or maybe it's online training, or perhaps it's asynchronous where they just log into some sort of system and then watch videos on this training. There are some online training platforms that can help you do this. There are systems that you can upload videos to, or that already have videos that can be used for this annual training or reoccurring training. I've used some great software in the past that has some great training to it, that has all sorts of whether you're some sort of compliance training that you need to go through, or that type of thing.

Not only does this platform deliver training, but we were also able to deliver our policies through there. So we would create our policies, upload them to this program, and then people would sign them off, and we do that on a yearly basis. Any changes that we made, we would have them sign digitally, and so they would just acknowledge the different policies.

We also ran our phishing campaigns through the same software. Those phishing campaigns will send out phishing emails and test people on, are they going to click the links from these phishing emails? And they're fake phishing emails, but they needed to identify these phishing emails and then be able to flag that these were phishing emails. And then from there it also did some great reporting on how people performed with all of this, making sure that they were doing their training, and they were agreeing to the policies, and that they weren't falling for these phishing campaigns.
