The setup
The Achilles heel of every awareness program is how it makes staff feel after they click the wrong link. Training that lands as a telling-off makes people reluctant to report anything next time — which is the opposite of the intended outcome. Sarah's review surfaces the only test that matters: did the experience leave the user feeling supported, or judged?
The engagement
Chewing IT's awareness training is built around the same posture Sarah names in her review. Phishing simulations, short modules, and a leaderboard. Clicks become coaching moments. Staff become an early-warning system instead of the weak link, and the team's risk score drops measurably within the first quarter.
Why now, on the Central Coast
Awareness training is the single highest-leverage security control most Central Coast SMBs aren't doing properly. The ASD's threat reporting consistently puts phishing in the top initial-access vectors; insurers now ask whether staff have completed training in the past 12 months. Done well, training takes 2–3 minutes per staff member per month and turns the workforce into the first line of defence.
Our training pairs realistic phishing simulations with bite-size remedial modules — staff who click get coached, not punished. Compliance-ready reports for the cyber-insurance questionnaire come standard. Delivered remotely across the Coast, the Hunter and Sydney's north.
