Why We Built Train2Secure

A single PDF. Seventy-two hours. Millions gone.

train2secure exists because of an attack our founder watched from the inside. While working at one of Australia’s largest logistics firms, a single résumé PDF — opened by one person in HR — handed a ransomware crew a foothold on the network. Within seventy-two hours they had harvested an administrator’s credentials, exfiltrated staff data, encrypted the backups and locked the servers.

The ransom demand went straight to the CEO and CFO: over two million dollars, later negotiated to four hundred thousand. The company was named on the attackers’ leak site and lost millions to downtime. It recovered for one reason only — a single backup the encryption had missed.

None of it took a sophisticated exploit. It took one employee, one file, on an ordinary working day.

Every hour of that incident was preventable — not with a better firewall, but with the right training reaching the right person before the email did. The employee who opened the file had received one forgettable induction session and nothing since. The gap the attackers walked through is the same gap most breaches still rely on.

So we built train2secure to close it: short, practical video courses people actually finish, realistic phishing simulations, and compliance reporting auditors accept — built for the small and mid-sized organisations attackers expect to be unprepared.

Train your people before an attacker does.

Building a Security-Aware World

Cyber attacks are the number one threat to businesses worldwide. Over 90% of successful breaches start with a phishing email or social engineering attack. Yet most organisations still treat security training as an annual checkbox exercise.

We built train2secure to change that. Our platform delivers continuous, engaging security awareness training combined with realistic phishing simulations that keep your team alert and prepared year-round.

From small businesses to large enterprises, we provide the tools, content, and analytics needed to build a genuine culture of security awareness.
