Security awareness training

Security Awareness Training That Actually Changes Behaviour

Last updated: July 2026

Most breaches start with a person, and most awareness training fails because it is a compliance video nobody remembers. Vintaris delivers security awareness training for Australian teams the way people actually learn: live, practical, and in their context, on-site or online, with the completion evidence your insurer increasingly requires.

Delivered in person at your workplace or live online, right across Australia and New Zealand, from capital cities to regional, mine and industrial sites.

How we deliver

In person, on-site

We come to your workplace

Brisbane and South East Queensland as standard, and regional Queensland by arrangement, including mine sites and industrial operations. A facilitator in the room, speaking plainly, taking questions, beats any e-learning module, and for shift-based workplaces we run short, toolbox-talk style sessions that fit the roster.

Delivered in person anywhere in Australia, including regional and site-based workforces, or remotely where that serves you better.

The same facilitated format over video for distributed teams, recorded for those who miss it.

Phishing simulations

Ongoing simulated phishing that measures whether the training stuck, with results that feed your evidence pack rather than shame your staff.

Phishing and pressure patternsInvoice and payment redirection fraudPassword and MFA habitsSafe AI use at workPhysical and social engineeringImpersonation callsWhat to do the moment something feels wrong

Content is tailored to your industry: a clinic’s front desk, a firm’s accounts team and a workshop floor face different attacks, and generic training serves none of them.

For critical infrastructure and their contractors

Operators under critical-infrastructure obligations, and the contractors and suppliers who serve them, increasingly must evidence personnel security awareness as part of their programs. We deliver sessions that slot into those programs, supply the attendance and completion records auditors ask for, and travel to where the workforce actually is. If a principal has asked your business to evidence cyber training to keep a contract, that is a one-session problem. See also our OT security guide for the machine layer.

The evidence your insurer and auditors ask for

What does security awareness training cost?

Honest answer: LMS platforms typically charge per seat per year, and facilitated training is priced per session. Our sessions are quoted on group size, location and format, with travel included in the quote for regional delivery, and one facilitated session typically costs less than a year of unused e-learning seats. Ask for a quote with your headcount and location and you will have a number the same day.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver in-person security awareness training?

Yes, on-site across Brisbane and South East Queensland as standard, and regional Queensland including mine sites by arrangement, with live online delivery across Australia and New Zealand.

Is awareness training required for cyber insurance?

Increasingly yes: many policies make staff awareness training a condition of cover, and claim assessors ask for evidence it happened. Our sessions come with attendance records and completion certificates for exactly that purpose. See our guide to cyber insurance requirements.

How much does cyber security awareness training cost in Australia?

Per-seat LMS platforms and facilitated sessions are priced differently; our facilitated sessions are quoted on group size, location and format, with same-day quotes. For most SMB teams a facilitated session costs less than a year of e-learning licences.

How often should staff do security awareness training?

At least annually, with new starters trained on induction and casuals included, plus short refreshers when a new threat pattern emerges. Insurers and auditors look for the annual cadence and the records behind it.
