People & training
Security Awareness & Training
Security is not only about technology; it is about people. An informed, vigilant team is vital to any security posture. Our programmes build a culture of security at every level, so employees and leaders alike can identify, prevent and respond to threats.

What you receive
Tailored curriculum
Modules for every service we deliver (penetration testing, secure coding and DevSecOps, threat modelling and security awareness), mapped to each team’s role.
Hands-on labs and CTFs
Practical exercises for technical teams, from injection flaws to advanced web scenarios, in a lab built for the course.
Awareness and phishing simulations
Realistic campaigns for all staff, with feedback that helps people recognise the real thing.
Progress reports
Retention measured through labs, quizzes and simulations, with the remaining weak spots highlighted.
Cyber security training
Foundational awareness
Password hygiene, social engineering tactics and data protection, helping participants understand how attacks target them in their day-to-day work.
Industry-specific compliance
From finance and healthcare to retail, each sector carries distinct risk and obligations. Targeted sessions keep teams current on GDPR, HIPAA and the rest.
Remote work security
As hybrid work becomes the norm we cover secure remote access, VPN usage, device hardening and secure collaboration practice.
Ethical hacking workshops
Penetration testing insights
How ethical hackers actually conduct a test. Participants see the tools and techniques real attackers use, and learn to think like one.
Hands-on labs
Practical exercises in vulnerability discovery and exploitation, from basic injection flaws through to advanced web scenarios.
Social engineering scenarios
How attackers manipulate behaviour through phishing, pretexting and impersonation. Simulating these makes suspicious behaviour easier to spot.
Secure coding
Secure SDLC
Security practice at every phase of development, from design and threat modelling through to deployment and maintenance, so flaws are addressed early.
Code analysis and automated testing
Using static and dynamic analysis to detect SQL injection, cross-site scripting and similar, and wiring those scans into CI/CD pipelines.
Best practice and standards
Curriculum aligned to the OWASP Top 10 and SANS/CWE Top 25, applied to real coding challenges rather than covered in the abstract.
Threat modelling workshops
Modelling your own systems
Engineers learn to draw data-flow diagrams, mark trust boundaries and work through threats with STRIDE on a system they actually own.
From threat to test
How a threat becomes a check: participants turn their model into code-review, pipeline and penetration-test cases.
Running the session
For security champions and leads: facilitating a modelling session, so the practice continues after the course.
How we deliver it
- Online and in-person sessionsVirtual classrooms or face-to-face workshops, built around real case studies and interactive question-and-answer rather than slides alone.
- Gamification and simulationRealistic phishing campaigns test how people respond to suspicious email, with feedback that helps them recognise the real thing.
- Capture-the-flag exercisesTurning vulnerability hunting into a game gives hands-on experience while keeping participants engaged.
- Practical workshopsTechnical deep-dives on network, web application and mobile app security, with a lab environment to practise in under expert guidance.
- Leadership seminarsAwareness starts at the top. Dedicated sessions for decision-makers cover strategic planning, risk management and driving a security culture.
- Ongoing assessment and reportingAfter each cycle we measure retention through quizzes, simulated attacks and direct feedback, with reports highlighting progress and remaining weaknesses.

Why choose Secure Debug
Expert instructors
Our trainers are working cybersecurity professionals drawing on active consulting engagements, so the material reflects what is happening now.
Customised curriculum
Modules aligned to your operational context, technology stack and compliance requirements rather than a fixed syllabus.
Hands-on and actionable
A learn-by-doing approach, so trainees can apply new skills immediately to the systems they actually work on.
Long-term partnership
Beyond one-off sessions: continuous support, follow-up material and refresher courses that sustain the culture.
Frequently asked questions
Which topics can you train on?
Every service we deliver: ethical hacking and penetration testing, secure coding and DevSecOps, threat modelling, and security awareness including phishing. A programme can combine them or focus on one.
Who is the training for?
Everyone: awareness for all staff, hands-on technical workshops for engineers and security teams, and dedicated seminars for leadership.
Can training build on one of your engagements?
Yes. Modules can be built around what a penetration test or threat model found in your own systems, so teams practise on the issues they actually have.
Online or in person?
Both. Virtual classrooms or face-to-face workshops, built around real case studies rather than slides alone.
How do we know it worked?
After each cycle we measure retention through labs, quizzes and simulations, and report on progress and the remaining weak spots.
