In our ongoing contributions to Cyber Security Awareness Month today we’re launching a two-part series designed to introduce you to some of our team.
For those who have been fortunate (unfortunate) enough to be on the receiving end of one of our phishing simulations, interacted with our microlearning modules, or training materials, you likely are unaware of some of the minds behind them.

Trojans have been around for ages, but up until the last few years they have primarily targeted desktop users. Due to the continued adoption of mobile devices, now overtaking that of desktop users, threat actors have placed a larger target on smartphones and tablet users.
