Cyber Awareness for the Boardroom · Guide 1

Training completed. What has changed?

A practical guide to behaviour, verification and leadership.

Your board paper says cyber awareness training is complete. The next question is whether people can use what they have learned when the request is urgent, the sender seems familiar or a senior person is waiting. The first guide in our Cyber Awareness Month series — for banks, other organisations and private offices.

What's inside

  • Behaviour and leadership

    Make the expected behaviour clear for situations that matter — and recognise that how leaders respond to a challenge is part of the control.

  • Evidence to discuss

    Verification under pressure, reporting and the response, and learning that leads to change — read alongside the completion figure, in context.

  • Three board questions

    What should people do differently? Can they pause, verify and report under pressure? What have we changed because of what they told us?

  • Ten minutes at the next meeting

    “The urgent instruction” — a late-Friday payment request apparently from the CEO, with a structured ten-minute discussion and follow-up record.

A useful leadership commitment

“The same checks apply to instructions that appear to come from me. I will support you for making them.”
