We’ve recently rolled StH out to all employees as mandatory training. We assigned the most relevant modules. The 
management on the backend is a little clunky but all feedback from users regarding the training has been positive.

We have been looking into security awareness training and have looked at a couple of vendors. We are now looking into 
the SANS Securing The Human. I'd appreciate any feedback on how well this has worked out. What kinds of feedback has 
anyone gotten from their users?

We use PhishMe also but just for the running phishing campaigns.  It's great for that as it has a lot of predefined 
templates for both phishing and creating awareness newsletters.  We use SANS Securing the Human for the content that we 
then import into our LMS.  We have mandated that all employees complete security awareness training

Sorry I'm late to seeing this.

Phishme.com<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https://Phishme.com&c=E,1,QVnFP7CU5h9P4EAUwscbChWtty9pdl3XUWjbLfyQe8BO9yvL3UmEw0waXz7byxA1RME8USqidVSsDJYZzoItBPROIU4cjgBJnnQOjiEiOpMfF9NSIA,,&typo=1>
 offers training with a phishing simulation program that they charge for. They also do have free training modules for 
those who cannot purchase their service - I was able to load them into our Moodle LMS to create a training course for 
our faculty and staff, although we have not mandated the training yet.

Good morning all,
With it being National Cyber Security Awareness Month, this inquiry I’ve been sitting on seems particularly relevant:
We presently have some training tools for general security awareness, PCI training, and HIPAA training in our primary 
LMS and have been contemplating moving to a different platform (the tools, not the LMS). I’m curious to know what 
platforms/tools other institutions are using and whether or not they think it provides great value.
Specifically, I guess I’d like to know:

  *   Which training program are you using?
  *   Are there additional modules available such as PCI training? HIPAA? FERPA? Etc.
  *   Is it/can it be integrated with a Learning Management System?
  *   Do you think it provides great value to the userbase you support?
  *   Are you considering switching to something else? Why?
  *   Anything else you’d like to share (e.g. Do you have regular events promoting awareness? Phishing campaigns? Etc.)

Please feel free to contact me off list.
Thank you!
