Frequently Asked Questions
Security awareness training, like the one we offer, helps everyone understand the role they play in helping to combat information security breaches. When done effectively, security awareness training helps employees understand proper cyber hygiene, the security risks associated with their actions and ways to identify cyberattacks they may encounter via email and the web.
The program is built and managed by TPx and includes:
- Phishing emails randomized for content and timing
- Phished users are immediately directed to point-of-click training
- Monthly training follows NIST guidelines for content
- Easily consumable by users – invites, reminders, user dashboard, multiple languages

The TPx Security Awareness Training program consists of monthly online courses covering a range of topics from general security awareness to best practices and regulatory compliance. Our Security Awareness Training program follows the NIST guidelines outlined in NIST Special Publication 800-50, which recommends that security awareness and training cover the following nine topics:
- Phishing
- Password security
- Safe web browsing
- Social engineering
- Malware
- Mobile security
- Physical security
- Removable media
- Working remotely
- Additional Training courses will be assigned based on customer specific needs to strengthen regulatory compliance (HIPAA, PCI, GDPR, etc.) or to enforce company policy.
Once they have completed their course, the employee will receive a congratulations email and will be able to download and print a certificate of completion to mark their achievement.
If you are like many SMB’s, you are lacking in-house IT resources or in need of additional capabilities. This is where TPx’s Security Advisory Services fits in – helping your business gain the insights you need to protect your data, manage risks and focus on your business.
Estimates vary, but if done in-house, the initial development of a training program, plan, and associated content can take anywhere between 1-2 months, assuming you have the expertise on-staff. There is the additional effort to keep the materials fresh and up-to-date, deliver training regularly, and to perform the tracking and record-keeping necessary to measure the efficiency of the program. That can easily take another 10-20 hours/month.
In order to be effective, security awareness training needs to be continual. Continual training reinforces the proper behaviors and improves retention of the material. TPx recommends short, targeted training every month as the best way to ensure your staff learns, retains, and follows proper security hygiene.
