Your Employees Are Either Your Greatest Vulnerability or Your Best Protection

Don’t Just Detect Threats – Eliminate Them with 24/7 MDR Backed by Human Expertise

95% of successful cyberattacks exploit human error – not technical flaws. One untrained click can cost millions in ransomware, compliance fines, and reputation damage. Palmiq's Security Awareness Training transforms your workforce from easy targets into cyber-savvy defenders who recognize, report, and stop threats before they spread.
Your firewall is bulletproof, your antivirus is up-to-date, but your receptionist just entered her credentials on a fake Microsoft login page. Human error remains the #1 attack vector because cybercriminals know technology is harder to exploit than people. Traditional "click-through" training fails because it's boring, irrelevant, and quickly forgotten. Palmiq's Security Awareness Training uses real-world scenarios, personalized simulations, and gamified learning to build lasting security habits. We don't just check compliance boxes – we create a security-conscious culture that actively defends your organization.

Top Security Behavior Risks We Address
1. Phishing & Social Engineering Susceptibility
The Problem: Employees fall for convincing emails requesting credentials, leading to account takeovers and data breaches. → Our Solution: Monthly phishing simulations + immediate teachable moments + progressive difficulty levels based on user performance.
2. Weak Password Habits & Credential Reuse
The Problem: "Password123" and reused credentials across personal/business accounts create easy entry points for attackers. → Our Solution: Password manager training + breach notification alerts + multi-factor authentication adoption campaigns.
3. Unsafe Remote Work Practices
The Problem: Home Wi-Fi, personal devices, and public networks expose corporate data to interception and malware. → Our Solution: Remote security protocols + VPN usage training + secure file sharing best practices.
4. Physical Security Negligence
The Problem: Unlocked screens, tailgating, and USB drops allow physical access to sensitive systems and data. → Our Solution: Clean desk policies + visitor management training + USB security awareness.
