This practical module helps employees recognise common cyber threats, including phishing, social engineering, malware and ransomware. Participants will explore how attackers use urgency, authority, fear and rewards to manipulate people through emails, text messages, phone calls and impersonation.

Using realistic scenarios, learners will identify suspicious links, unexpected attachments, fraudulent payment requests and requests for passwords or one-time codes. The module also explains how malicious software spreads through fake updates, unsafe USB drives and pirated applications.

By the end of the module, participants will be able to spot warning signs, verify requests through trusted channels and take appropriate immediate action when a suspected attack occurs.
