Overview

CybSafe offers a SaaS, per-user subscription platform that applies behavioral science and data analytics to manage people-related security risk. Its product delivers microlearning content and personalized “nudges” via mobile app or browser in nine languages. The company says this behavior-led approach lets organizations peer into workforce security behavior, culture and risk reporting to preempt problems and track improvement, and claims 40%–60% greater effectiveness for certain security behaviors versus traditional methods. CybSafe counts clients such as Credit Suisse, Barclays, HSBC, FNZ Group and Moody’s, and has a strategic partnership with Vodafone. Founded and launched in 2017 by Oz Alashe MBE, the company was created to move beyond compliance-driven, tick-box training toward evidence-backed behavior change.
