Security Awareness Training
Over 80% of cyber attacks succeed because of human factors. We provide training people actually remember.
All included — one relationship.
Culture-Changing Workshops
Firewalls, antivirus, disk encryption, ransomware-proof backups — all of that is taken for granted here. Every one of our clients has these things in place, yet none of it covers the most targeted part of any organisation: its people.
We provide engaging training that genuinely changes the culture around information security amongst staff and drastically lowers the human-factors threat your organisation faces.
We can deliver anything from focused 30-minute masterclasses on UK GDPR or current ransomware methods, right through to multi-day events where participants engage in social engineering and account hacking — directly demonstrating how simple over-sharing on social media can spiral into full company account compromises.
Online Workshops — Beyond the Zoom Call
We provide interactive workshops that go well beyond the interminable "staring at rectangles" training sessions. An open chat runs throughout, allowing participants to ask questions privately without any fear of asking "the dumb question". There are no dumb questions when it comes to the security of your data, and we make sure everyone feels comfortable raising concerns and emerges feeling competent and well supported.
We provide hackable email accounts, fake social media profiles to mine for personal data and password guessing. Participants spend time breaking into accounts and learning how to impersonate a target — all of which has a far greater impact on their approach to security than a set of PowerPoint slides.
In-Person Workshops — Well Outside the Box
Company cyber security training can be dull. How about a cyber security picnic out in the fresh air with breakout groups tackling hacking, ransomware, device encryption and security culture — rounded out with a presentation from the local Police Cyber Crime division?
We create staff you can trust and support your organisation with security well beyond the annual refresher.
Training Programmes
Training is often met with groans and eye-rolling. But it is a core part of any modern business, and every session must have real impact and drive behavioural change.
Our solution is the 30-minute masterclass. Short, focused, interactive sessions that cover a single subject in depth, allowing participants to ask questions and genuinely understand why the material matters to them. No death-by-PowerPoint — just clear, practical knowledge they will actually retain.
| Course | Description |
|---|---|
| Phishing — Avoid Being Hooked | What is phishing? Why does it account for the vast majority of successful attacks? Most importantly, what can you do to protect yourself and your business? |
| Ransomware — What, Where, Who, How? | We look at how ransomware works, the evolving tactics behind it, and take you through the practical steps to keep your organisation as safe as possible while avoiding the pitfalls that can sink a business. |
| Backups — The Most Important Thing You Have Never Done | An introduction to the process of backing up your data — a step-by-step guide to making sure your essential information is protected and recoverable. |
| Continuity and Disaster Recovery Planning | An introduction to planning for the worst and making sure your business is ready to recover seamlessly from any disaster. |
| Data Protection and UK GDPR | Everyone groans at this one, but it remains one of the most important advances in data security. Can you afford to get your data protection wrong? This session is designed to be an engaging, jargon-free look at your responsibilities. |
| Security and Convenience — Staying Safe and Working Fast | Security does not have to be inconvenient. This short session showcases practical strategies to maintain convenience while staying safe. |
| An Overview of Cyber Security | Everyone should have annual security training. We have condensed this down to the things you really need to know to stay safe. No jargon, no acronyms — just clear ways to defend against current threats. |
| AI, Deepfakes and Social Engineering | Attackers now use AI-generated emails, cloned voices, and deepfake video to impersonate trusted contacts. This session shows you what these attacks look like and how to spot them before the damage is done. |
Access to all masterclasses is included as part of our managed service. Masterclasses are also available to non-clients — get in touch for details.
We create bespoke packages to give you an engaging half-day session that keeps your staff aware and encourages a genuine culture of security within your organisation.
An in-depth look at data protection followed by a dive into cyber security practice and then a live hacking workshop? Let us know what you need and we will create and deliver it for you.
80 percent of cyber security is about avoiding human error, so a strong training programme is every bit as important as a solid firewall.
| Course | Description | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Phishing, Ransomware and Security Culture | What is phishing? Why does it account for the vast majority of successful attacks? Most importantly, what can you do to protect yourself and your business? We look at how ransomware works and take you through the steps to stay safe. Finally, we examine the culture within your organisation — can staff safely admit a mistake and halt ransomware in its tracks, or will guilt allow the infection to spread? | 3.5 Hours |
| Backups, Device Security, Network Safety and Best Practice | An introduction to identifying, securing and backing up your data. We showcase strategies to maintain convenience while staying safe, covering antivirus, VPNs, security when working remotely, and simple cost-effective solutions that eliminate the major threats without costing the earth. | 2.5 Hours |
| UK GDPR, Data Protection and the DPO Role | Can you afford to get your data protection wrong? This session is an engaging look at the UK GDPR, designed to give a sufficiently broad overview of the issues involved to allow a member of staff to take on the role of Data Protection Officer within your organisation. | 4 Hours |
| AI Threats and Modern Social Engineering | A deep dive into AI-powered attacks: deepfake audio and video, AI-generated phishing, and sophisticated impersonation techniques. Participants learn to recognise and respond to threats that bypass traditional security awareness, with hands-on exercises using real-world examples. | 3 Hours |
Half-day training packages start from £880. We tailor every session to your organisation — get in touch to discuss your requirements.
Sometimes you need to take people out of the office to really get their attention.
Hardly anyone remembers the GDPR PowerPoint, but everybody will remember the cyber security picnic where they ran scenarios with members of the local Police Cyber Crime unit and split into teams in a race to hack a social media account and impersonate an email from Mike in accounts.
We can deliver single or multi-day events with multiple speakers and challenges for your delegates. From experts in police cyber crime through to white-hat hackers, we put on events that show your teams, delegates or members that you are leading the way with security.
Company awareness events from £1,500 per day.

"We regularly collaborate with Custodia UK to assist us with our data and security compliance and policy creation. The service we receive is great. Jae and Chris always take the time to understand our needs. Most recently Jae delivered a short online training session on Data Protection and GDPR which the attendees found a really beneficial recap of the complex topic. The facilitation was engaging and all information shared was very clear. We would recommend Custodia and their training to other businesses who are looking to upskill employees on specialist topics in a bite-sized format."
