Before you enrolCyber Safe at Work: questions, answered
Straight answers on time, price, tools and the credential. If yours is not here, ask us and you will have a reply the same working day.
Is security awareness training mandatory for employees?
It depends on your sector, your contracts and the standards you follow. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Annex A 6.3), PCI DSS v4.0.1 (Requirement 12.6) and NIST CSF 2.0 (PR.AT) all expect awareness training, and many clients and insurers ask for it. Bodhih Cyber Safe at Work supports that evidence with a dated record per learner; it does not certify compliance with any standard.
Who is the Cyber Safe at Work course for, and do I need technical knowledge?
It is for every employee in any sector, including new joiners, contractors and non-desk staff. No technical knowledge is needed. Learners pick their role (General, HR and People, Sales, Finance, Operations, Marketing or Customer Service) and the examples and labs switch to their work. It is global, with India-first reporting routes alongside UK and US ones.
How long does the cyber security awareness course take?
About 5 hours in total: six modules of 35 to 40 minutes, a 10-minute baseline check and a short final check. It is self-paced and works on a phone or laptop, and learners can stop and resume at any point.
Do learners get a certificate?
Yes. Learners who pass the final check (70%, up to 3 attempts) receive the Bodhih Cyber Safe at Work completion certificate, issued as an Open Badge 2.0 with a verify page and a PDF, plus a dated completion record. It is a training credential from Bodhih Training Solutions, not a university or government qualification.
How do company seats work, and is there a minimum?
Company seats cost $29 per seat a year, with a minimum of 25 seats; an individual place is $35. Companies get company reporting and a completion record for each learner (date, modules completed, baseline and final scores, role lens). The modules are SCORM 1.2 packages run in the Bodhih LMS; ask us if you want to run them in your own LMS. Write to solutions@bodhih.com or call +91 99000 11601.
What tools or software do learners need?
Only a web browser on a phone, tablet or computer. The Threat Inspector and the Scenario Sims run inside the course, so no email account, security tool or password manager purchase is needed to complete it. Module 4 explains how to set up a password manager and passkeys with the tools your company approves.
Does the course send fake phishing emails to our staff?
No. Learners train on realistic messages and calls inside the course. If you want simulated phishing in real inboxes as well, run it with your email security tool alongside this course.
Does it cover deepfakes and AI-written scams?
Yes. Module 3 covers deepfake video calls, voice clones, fake bosses and payment-change fraud, with The CFO Call, a timed, branching simulation. AI-written phishing, ClickFix fake “verify you are human” pages, QR and calendar-invite lures, and safe use of approved AI tools appear across the other modules.
How does it compare with a security awareness platform or a free course?
Platforms such as KnowBe4 offer large libraries and simulated phishing, usually on a per-user subscription, often quote-based or multi-year. Free courses such as the UK NCSC’s Top Tips for Staff give a short baseline without a record. This course sits between them: about 5 hours of hands-on practice, role-based examples, a before-and-after check and a record per learner at a published seat price, without inbox simulations.
Does it prepare me for a cybersecurity certification such as CompTIA Security+ or ISC2 CC?
No. It is an awareness course for every employee, not technical security training, and it is not linked to any outside certification body. People aiming at a security career should take a course written for that exam.
What should I do if I clicked a phishing link?
Stop, tell your IT or security team at once, keep the message, and change your password from a different device if you typed it in. Follow your own IT team’s instructions. If money was sent, call your bank now; in India also call 1930 or report at cybercrime.gov.in. Module 6 practises exactly this in the I Think I Clicked It simulation.
