As we are told to work from home and stay away from others, we all growingly rely on cyberspace in getting news, receiving education, in holding conferences, ordering food, or sending emails.

At the end of the online session, each person gets recommendations on how to protect themselves from specific cyber threats.Almost all major cyber incidents started with an unsuspecting individual opening yet another e-mail, using the same password over and over again or similar actions that many of us still do on a daily basis."

The project is replicable and easily scalable as the it is based on CybExer’s proprietary Cyber Hygiene e-Learning Course at CybExer's online digital e-learning and risk mapping platform. Transferring of know-how about the methodology and technical implementation is easy and fast.
The Cyber Hygiene e-Learning Course is based on a project first implemented by the Estonian and Latvian ministries of defence and the European Defence Agency as a direct response to sophisticated, targeted cyber-attacks against government entities in 2015-2016. Following its success in the defence sector, the course has been adjusted for wider use in cooperation with the State Information Authority of Estonia since 2017.
