Security training for employees

Every day, employees get emails “from the bank”, “from IT” or “from the boss”. Below are six common situations and what Opsinel does in each of them.

What happens in the 40 minutes after one click

A morning like this can happen at any company: a tidy email, a rush and one click.

08:41

A fake supplier email arrives

The invoice looks normal, the attachment is named correctly and the tone is polite.

Risk unnoticed
08:44

An employee clicks and signs in

They don't notice the foreign domain and type their password on a fake page.

Mistake made
09:10

The password is used elsewhere

The attacker signs in to email, cloud storage or internal documents.

IT reacts late
09:20

Leadership asks whether the team was prepared

Without training, there are no dates or numbers to show.

Nothing to show
If the employee had practised08:44

The employee stops and tells IT

They saw a similar email in a simulation, so they check the sender and forward the email to IT.

No incident

Six situations and what Opsinel does in each

The first two show how scammers fool employees. The other four show how a company keeps it under control.

01

An email “from the bank” looks real

The logo, colours and tone all match. Only the sender address and the link are different, and someone in a hurry doesn't look at them.

How Opsinel helps: We send the same kind of email as practice. Anyone who clicks sees straight away what they missed: the foreign domain, the false urgency and the link.

02

An employee types their password on a fake page

The email says their Microsoft 365 password is about to expire. The link opens a page that looks exactly like the sign-in screen, and the password goes straight to the scammers.

How Opsinel helps: The simulation shows who would enter details but never stores the password. The lesson teaches people to read the address and recognise a fake sign-in page.

You don't know who in your company would click

Until there's an incident, the risk is invisible. Some employees recognise a suspicious email, others click on everything, and nobody knows who is who.

How Opsinel helps: After the first simulation, you see the click rate for the whole company, each department and each employee. You know who to train first.

There's never time for training

Security is often handled by the same person who looks after the laptops, accounts and printers. Training gets pushed to next month, and then the month after.

How Opsinel helps: You schedule campaigns up to 3 months ahead and they go out on their own. On Fully Managed, we plan and send them for you.

A new employee doesn't know the rules yet

In their first weeks, a new starter gets lots of emails from unknown senders and doesn't yet know how payments are approved. That makes them an easy target.

How Opsinel helps: You assign the introductory security course as soon as you add them. They take it in the employee portal, signing in with a code sent by email.

A client or leadership asks whether employees are trained

Saying “yes, we train them” is easy. Showing when simulations ran, how many people finished courses and whether clicks are going down is impossible without data.

How Opsinel helps: The leadership summary and employee certificates show it with dates and numbers. Anyone can check a certificate is genuine by its number.
