Security Awareness Training: Local Councils

Helping You Stay Safe in a Digital World

At Flotek, we believe cybersecurity awareness should be accessible across the public sector—not just limited to IT teams or specialist roles. That’s why we’re offering a free online training session designed to help local councils and public sector organisations stay ahead of today’s evolving cyber threats.

Delivered by experienced cybersecurity professionals, these sessions are built to empower council staff at all levels with the practical knowledge needed to protect sensitive data, maintain service continuity, and reduce the risk of disruption caused by cyber incidents.

What You’ll Learn

✅ Spot the Threats – Understand how phishing, social engineering, AI‑driven scams and impersonation attacks are increasingly targeting public sector organisations.
✅ Stay Ahead – Learn best practices for data protection, password hygiene, and secure remote work
✅ Engage & Ask – Participate in live Q&A and interactive demos tailored to real-world scenarios

Why It Matters

• Phishing accounts for 31% of all cyber breaches globally in 2025
• Over 3.4 billion phishing emails are sent every day
• The average cost of a phishing breach has soared to $4.88 million
• In the UK, 43% of businesses reported a cyber breach in the past year — 85% of those were phishing attacks
• The average cost of a breach for UK businesses is now £3,550 (excluding zero-cost incidents)

Cybercriminals are using AI to craft more convincing scams, from deepfake voice calls to QR code attacks. These threats are no longer just technical — they’re psychological.

Why We’re Doing This

Local councils play a vital role in supporting communities and managing sensitive information. We’re committed to helping both customers and non‑customers strengthen their cyber resilience through practical education, not fear‑based messaging.
