How are you preparing for the World Cup of cybersecurity?

Cyber Awareness Month is the biggest moment of the year for security awareness teams. Some might say it's our World Cup.

But no team wins a championship just by reading the playbook and studying the rules.

They win because they practiced hard to handle game-time pressure. They built the muscle memory to make the right play when the game was on the line. They trained the fundamentals. They got coaches' feedback. They learned from mistakes and were rewarded for success. They won, lost, and competed together.

Cybersecurity works the same way.

Join David Badanes, Human Risk Advisor at Hoxhunt, for a practical Cyber Awareness Month webinar that rethinks the game plan on how to prepare your people for the moments that matter: real phishing emails, fake calendar invites, smishing attacks, deepfakes, and urgent requests that arrive when employees are busy, distracted, or stressed.

This session will help security awareness leaders turn October from a one-month campaign into a training ground for year-round behavior change.

As David puts it:

“Nobody wins the World Cup on talent alone. It’s the reps in the background that nobody sees.”

What you’ll learn

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

• Turn Cyber Awareness Month into a kickoff for year-round security behavior change
• Use sports and training principles to make cybersecurity more engaging
• Build cyber muscle memory through repetition, feedback, and realistic practice
• Help employees pause, verify, and report when real attacks arrive
• Train people on the threats they are actually seeing, from calendar invite attacks to World Cup-themed phishing
• Use gamification, leaderboards, and friendly competition to motivate participation
• Move beyond completion rates and click rates toward meaningful behavior metrics
• Prepare your people before attackers choose the moment of the game

This webinar will show how to use October to build the habits that last after the final whistle.

Cyber Awareness Month Toolkit

This webinar also introduces Hoxhunt’s Cyber Awareness Month Toolkit, available August 17.

This year’s theme is:

Cybersecurity is a Team Sport

The toolkit includes ready-to-use campaign materials, weekly messages, posters, videos, stickers, and training ideas to help your organization build a stronger cyber team in October and competes year-round.

Use it to rally your employees, and make Cyber Awareness Month feel less like mandatory training and more like a team challenge everyone is excited to join.
