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.
