This educational website offers a brief and engaging certification process to raise employee awareness about cybersecurity issues in less than an hour.

Rising Cybersecurity Incidents in the US

About Cyber101

Cyber101.com is the brainchild of childhood friends and entrepreneurs Guillaume Belanger and Benjamin Beauregard. Guillaume, president of an IT services company, identified a crucial lack of easily accessible cybersecurity content for SMEs. He partnered with Benjamin, head of a video production agency, to combine their strengths.

Cyber101 is committed to making cybersecurity awareness training accessible to as many people as possible to protect organizations nationwide.
