    We use Curricula to level up our internal training programs. We are currently working on SOC-2 and HIPAA compliance and these training capabilities allow us to easily track progress and get the teams trained up quickly. Previously we had no training program internally and this will help us grow the business now that we can win deals in areas where these compliance measures are required. I think this is great for software companies training teams in remote settings because it is all self-paced and on-demand. We would never get through it all if we had to do it in a workshop in person setting.

    SANS Security Awareness Training program would be well suited for a large organization that needs to develop multiple training programs with different courses based on the roles of the end users. It seemed a bit difficult at times to achieve simple setup processes because of the configurations tailored to larger, more complex organizations.

    We actually are currently migrating to Proofpoint Security Awareness Training because of its integration with the Proofpoint email filter. This will allow us to target specific users who are clicking on bad emails with specific training material. We have used KnowBe4 in the past as well, but it was rather costly compared to SANS Security Awareness Training and Proofpoint. SANS Security Awareness Training seems to be the least easy-to-use interface from an administrative perspective compared to the other two.

    • Positive impact knowing we are educating our staff from phishing and potential cyber criminals
    • Considering the potential for bad actors infiltrating our network, this is a small expense
    • Pricing based on actual end users, worth the investment
