"I can recommend this training to all team leaders. The delivery of the course was excellent. Amar was incredibly engaging and I was gripped (and occasionally terrified) by what he had to say. Amar was knowledgeable about the content but was able to keep it simple (non-technical) and give us the high level take home messages which I will be reviewing with my organisation."

David Thompson

- Pembrokeshire County Council

"Really beneficial course for those responsible or contributing to cyber security, especially those who might not be part of the 'technical' side of the business. For myself in the resilience space, I found it useful.

Fantastic trainer. Very knowledgeable, good at facilitating discussion and promoting thoughts, with humour dotted throughout to keep it upbeat and light-hearted when needed for what can be a somewhat worrying topic at times."

Course Participant

- British Transport Police

"If you want a good overview of cyber security, this course is carried out in a non-technical manner so you can understand the core areas you need to focus on when protecting your organisation. You do not have to be technical to understand the material in the course.”

Paul Richards

- Dyfed Powys Police

"Very informative course with excellent, relatable content. Whilst its easy to scare everyone in the field of Cyber Security, this course provides the solutions to the risks in a manner that doesn't baffle the non-IT Crew. Knowledge dispels fear, and I gained plenty of it. Excellent facilitator who clearly knows his field, and isn't simply reading from prepared slides. He engaged in conversations with delegates and had the knowledge to respond with in-depth information to any questions posed. This course has enhanced my knowledge and considerations on security considerably."

Course Participant

- Dyfed Powys LRF

"A great training course and a bit of an eye opener. Amar was engaging, knowledgeable and could clearly explain the issues without getting too technical for the non-technical delegates in attendance. Great use of real life examples helped to give context.”
