Cybersecurity training for small and medium businesses
Small businesses often assume attackers aren't interested in them, yet phishing and BEC work most easily there because there is no IT team and no verification process. ShieldWise runs training automatically, so you don't need a dedicated security specialist.
- No IT team needed: assignment and reminders are automatic
- Monthly billing, no annual commitment
- The most common threats: phishing, BEC, passwords
- Set up in minutes

The myth: "we're too small"
Most attackers work at scale: they send the same phishing email to thousands of companies and wait to see who clicks. A small company has fewer defences, and one stolen transfer can hurt it far more than a large corporation.
Three habits that change the most
For a small business the priorities are simple:
- Spotting phishing and fake invoices
- Unique passwords and two-factor authentication
- Verifying any transfer or change of bank details by phone
How it works without extra staff
You add employees and pick courses; the platform does the rest: it sends invitations and reminders and shows you who has finished. Pricing depends on headcount and can be paid monthly.
