Why cybersecurity training is now urgent in Algeria

Algerian companies face a 300% increase in cyber attacks since 2022 (ANPDP report). 87% of incidents start with a human factor: phishing email, weak password, unauthorized USB. Technology alone (firewalls, antivirus) cannot stop these. Cyber awareness training is the cheapest, fastest ROI security investment. MFEP-accredited.

Phishing simulations — monthly fake phishing campaigns + remedial e-learning
Password & MFA hygiene — password managers, 2FA setup, breach awareness
Social engineering — phone scams, USB drops, tailgating, deepfakes
Mobile & remote work — public WiFi, BYOD, secure messaging, screen privacy

Detailed training modules

Six standalone modules covering the full end-user cyber awareness perimeter — calibrated for Algerian regulatory context (Law 18-07, Law 25-11) and the real attack patterns hitting DZ B2B in the last 24 months.

Password security & strong authentication

typically half-day

Weak credentials remain the entry point of most B2B breaches in Algeria. This module trains workforce to build, store, and rotate strong passwords without daily friction, and to deploy multi-factor authentication on critical accounts.

Build a workable corporate password policy aligned with NIST guidance
Deploy and operate enterprise password managers without user revolt
Roll out multi-factor authentication on email, VPN, and admin consoles
Detect early signs of account compromise (impossible travel, alerts)

Phishing & social engineering

typically 1 day

The vast majority of cyber incidents start with a fraudulent email. This module trains employees to recognize phishing, spear-phishing, pretexting, and CEO fraud (FOVI) calibrated for the Algerian B2B impersonation patterns we observe in incident response.

Spot malicious links, attachments, and look-alike domains
Identify spear-phishing and CEO fraud (FOVI) red flags in DZ context
Apply the call-back protocol on any wire transfer instruction
Use internal reporting channels to flag suspicious messages in seconds

Data protection — Law 25-11 & Law 18-07 essentials

typically 1-2 days

Algerian personal data law has shifted with Law 25-11. This module brings DPOs and operational managers up to speed on legal obligations, data subject rights, classification of sensitive data, and breach response — fully aligned with recent ANPDP guidance.

Understand Law 18-07 and Law 25-11 obligations applicable to your sector
Map and classify personal and sensitive data flows across the organization
Document data subject rights handling (access, rectification, erasure)
Draft an ANPDP-ready breach response plan with notification timelines

Mobile devices, BYOD & remote work security

typically 1 day

Smartphones and home networks are the weak link of distributed Algerian B2B teams. This module covers BYOD policy, mobile device encryption, MDM essentials, and the secure remote-work patterns that protect both employee and employer.

Define a workable BYOD policy balancing security and employee rights
Enforce mobile encryption, screen locks, and MDM controls
Use VPN, split tunneling, and Wi-Fi hygiene on the road
Apply safe collaboration habits on Teams, WhatsApp, and shared drives

Secure cloud and SaaS usage

typically half-day to 1 day

Most Algerian B2B companies now run on a mix of Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and sectoral SaaS. This module trains end-users to share, store, and collaborate securely in the cloud — without leaking data through misconfigured links or shadow IT.

Use OneDrive, SharePoint, and Google Drive sharing controls correctly
Recognize and avoid shadow IT — unsanctioned tools that bypass governance
Apply data classification labels and information rights management
Detect supplier account compromise on shared collaboration spaces

Incident response & business continuity

intensive 2-day track + annual tabletop

When a cyber incident hits, minutes count. This module prepares your operational teams to detect, contain, and recover from incidents — from ransomware to data breach — while preserving evidence and meeting Law 25-11 notification timelines.

Run the first 60 minutes of incident triage and containment
Isolate compromised endpoints without destroying forensic evidence
Operate crisis communication — internal, regulators, and external
Test and update backup and recovery plans on a recurring cadence

Beeform cybersecurity training methodology

Six pillars that drive every cyber training engagement — from baseline phishing diagnosis to annual measurement, calibrated for Algerian Law 18-07 and Law 25-11 compliance.

Baseline phishing diagnosis

Every engagement starts with a controlled phishing simulation against your real workforce: realistic templates calibrated for Algerian B2B (French/Arabic emails, common impersonation scenarios — bank, MFEP, internal HR, CEO fraud). Results give a quantified baseline (click rate, credential entry rate, attachment open rate) per department. Defines training priorities: high-risk departments (Finance, HR, executive assistants) get reinforced cycles.

Risk-tiered cohort design

We segment your workforce into 4-5 risk tiers based on data access and attack exposure: end-users (general workforce), privileged users (HR, Finance, IT), executives (CEO fraud targets), DPO / compliance officers, IT/SOC teams. Each tier gets a calibrated curriculum: end-users get 30-min annual awareness, privileged users get quarterly deep-dives, IT/SOC gets technical hands-on. No one-size-fits-all that wastes everyone's time.

Ex-CISO trainer pairing

Each program is paired with trainers who have actually held CISO or DPO roles in Algerian banks, telecoms, energy companies, or public-sector institutions — not generic cyber consultants. They bring real-world stories (real incidents, anonymized) and pragmatic guidance calibrated for the Algerian regulatory landscape (Law 18-07, Law 25-11, ANPDP rulings, ANPS guidance). Continuity preserved across the 12-month awareness cycle.

Continuous nano-learning

Beyond annual mandatory training, we deliver monthly 5-min nano-modules: a single topic (e.g. CEO fraud red flags, WhatsApp scams targeting Algerian users, USB drop attacks, supplier email compromise), delivered via email + Beeform mobile app. Just-in-time training after phishing campaigns: any employee who clicks gets immediate remedial 5-min e-learning. Spaced repetition outperforms one-shot annual training by 3-4×.

Tabletop & live exercises

Once per year, we run a tabletop exercise with your management team simulating a realistic incident: ransomware encrypting HR servers, data breach affecting customer database, supplier compromise giving attacker access to your network, executive impersonation requesting urgent wire transfer. Participants role-play their incident response. Reveals gaps in playbooks, escalation paths, communication. Output: prioritized list of preparedness gaps to fix.

Annual measurement & ANPDP-ready reporting

Year-end: comparative phishing campaign (same difficulty as baseline), training completion stats, knowledge retention quiz, tabletop exercise output. All consolidated in an annual cyber awareness report — auditable by ANPDP under Law 25-11, by Bank of Algeria for banks, by ARH for hydrocarbons. Typical results after 12 months of structured awareness: phishing click rate drops from 20-30% to 3-5%, password reuse drops by 60%, incident reporting rate doubles.
