My vision: To help every individual learn to manage cyber risks. After a decade of teaching security awareness, I created a platform.

1. Employees felt the training was boring and just a necessary evil
2. Employees did not see relevant value in the training
3. Employees received no feedback on their choices
4. Employees were not rewarded for doing well
5. Employees had no safe way to practice making risk decisions
6. Employees could not see if others were participating
7. Content of topics and scenarios couldn’t easily be tailored
8. Management had no data about the actual proficiency of staff

As a result, the Click Armor security awareness training and engagement platform was developed to address these specific requiremenst, in a scalable, flexible way that’s fun for employees, and effective in helping manage risks from employee vulnerabilities.
