Enterprise Security Awareness Training That Scales With Your Organization

Why security awareness training is critical for enterprises

Your threat surface grows with every employee, contractor, and third-party user. At enterprise scale, one successful phishing attempt can quickly escalate into a serious security incident.

Traditional security awareness programs weren't built for organizations managing:

  • Distributed, high-turnover workforces where the human element and continuous education must be addressed simultaneously across regions
  • Stringent compliance mandates from ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and industry-specific frameworks that require documented training and audit trails
  • Executive and board-level visibility into human risk metrics that demonstrate security posture improvements quarter over quarter
  • Limited security team bandwidth to manually track, report, and adapt training for thousands of users without scalable automation

What makes our enterprise security awareness training different

Most security awareness platforms weren't designed for enterprises. They're SMB tools stretched thin, forcing teams into manual processes and analytics that don't connect to business risk.

Adaptive Security was architected specifically for enterprise scale and complexity.

Built for enterprise speed. Deploy globally without heavy operational lift. Adaptive supports complex organizational structures across business units and geographies while maintaining centralized visibility and control.

Training that adapts automatically. High-risk users receive targeted interventions without manual effort. Low-risk users progress efficiently. Training stays relevant across regions with localized content tailored to regional threat patterns.

Risk measurement based on real behavior change. We track real-world responses to cybersecurity threats and identify persistent risk patterns. You prove ROI with metrics that matter: behavioral improvement and quantifiable risk reduction.

Core capabilities built for enterprise scale

Enterprise phishing simulations

Run realistic phishing, smishing, and vishing campaigns that reflect how modern social engineering and ransomware attackers target enterprises today. Simulations support executive impersonation and OSINT-based personalization while adapting difficulty based on employee behavior.

Interactive security awareness training

Replace outdated video modules with hands-on, scenario-based learning that reflects your industry's threat landscape and addresses security threats like malware and email security risks.

Content libraries cover everything from data handling and insider threats to secure remote work and third-party risk—localized for global teams in 30+ languages.

Risk scoring and human risk management

Measure human risk and identify vulnerabilities using behavioral signals from simulations and training activity over time. Risk scoring helps teams understand where exposure exists across individuals and departments. Trends over time support clear conversations with leadership.

How enterprise teams use Adaptive Security

Reducing phishing susceptibility across global workforces

High turnover and distributed teams make phishing risk harder to manage. Adaptive Security uses realistic simulations to surface higher-risk users and focus training where it is needed most.

Attentive's CISO, Katie Ledoux, highlights this speed: "When a new type of attack pops up, Adaptive allows us to deploy relevant content immediately."

Meeting compliance and audit mandates

Technology companies facing evolving AI-powered cyberattacks need this responsiveness.

Enterprise teams need clear, audit-ready records to meet frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA. Adaptive Security helps teams assign training by role and maintain reliable training records, making it easier to provide auditors with the evidence they expect.

NerdWallet achieved a 10/10 onboarding experience while establishing comprehensive compliance tracking across its financial services organization.

Quantifying human risk for leadership

CISOs need metrics beyond completion rates to demonstrate risk reduction to boards. Adaptive Security's risk scoring translates user behavior into quantifiable trends that map to your threat landscape.

Plaid's Head of Security GRC Kenneth Moras describes the impact: "Adaptive has equipped our teams with cutting-edge tools and built a smarter, more resilient security culture across the company."
