Security awareness culture assessment

Do you want to understand where your organisation really stands when it comes to security awareness? Not just in terms of knowledge, but also culture and motivation? Our security awareness culture assessment provides a realistic picture of how security awareness and information security are perceived and practised within your organisation. It forms the foundation of an effective awareness programme.

Built on behavioural science

Secure behaviour doesn’t happen by chance. Employees need clear guidance, an environment that supports secure behaviour, and the motivation to act accordingly. Only when these three elements come together does sustainable secure behaviour emerge.

That’s why our culture assessment is based on the COM-B model:

Capability – Do employees have the right knowledge and skills?
Opportunity – Does leadership encourage secure behaviour, and does the working environment make it easy for employees to act securely?
Motivation – Which drivers and habits influence employee behaviour?

What does the culture assessment involve?

The culture assessment consists of a carefully designed, anonymous online questionnaire that employees complete in around 10 minutes. The questionnaire combines a knowledge check with questions about culture and motivation. We measure how employees perform on security and privacy topics, as well as how they experience the organisation’s security culture. This includes aspects such as leadership, colleagues’ behaviour, motivation and beliefs that influence day-to-day actions.

What does the culture assessment deliver?

The results are presented in a clear, visual report. This highlights your organisation’s strengths and shows where risks arise in terms of secure behaviour and culture. The report also provides insight per COM-B pillar.

Together, the results form a solid basis for tailored advice on the next steps in your security awareness programme.

From insight to action

Based on the culture assessment, we design a targeted awareness programme that aligns with your organisation. Not only in terms of topics but also learning formats. For example, we use engaging, activating learning formats when motivation needs extra attention, and add focused modules where knowledge gaps exist. Where appropriate, we also recommend additional interventions, such as social engineering assessments or interactive knowledge sessions.
