How the CyberNest Hub Program Works

CyberNest Hub begins with a structured 90-day Human-Risk Baseline and can continue as an ongoing Managed Awareness program. The process is designed to keep the work manageable for your firm while ensuring training, simulations, and reporting happen consistently.

A clear client journey

Know what happens next.

CyberNest Hub manages the program rather than handing your team a software login and a list of tasks. Your firm stays involved in the decisions that require its authority and context.

Written scope, authorization, agreed payment conditions, roster checks, and technical readiness come before program activation. Each simulation has its own approval.

  1. Readiness review

    A short conversation about your current approach, employee count, email environment, business calendar, and the employee-facing risks most relevant to your firm.

  2. Program scope and approval

    CyberNest Hub works with your firm to document participants, exclusions, approved themes, blackout dates, key contacts, stop contacts, and reporting preferences.

  3. Setup and baseline training

    Your firm provides the employee roster through an agreed secure method and coordinates allowlisting if needed. CyberNest Hub sets up the program and employees receive short baseline training.

  4. First simulation

    CyberNest Hub runs an approved, recognizable phishing scenario and confirms delivery while monitoring the launch.

  5. Follow-up and leadership update

    Employees who need additional reinforcement receive targeted learning. Leadership receives an aggregate monthly summary and practical focus areas.

  6. Two additional practice cycles

    Two additional approved simulations reinforce learning over the initial 90-day period. CyberNest Hub accounts for business deadlines, exclusions, and firm-approved guardrails.

  7. Plan the next phase

    At the end of the baseline, CyberNest Hub reviews what the program showed and recommends practical next steps. Your firm can choose Managed Awareness so training, practice, and leadership visibility remain active rather than returning to a once-a-year routine. Continuing is optional, with no long-term commitment.

A responsible pace

A delayed send is better than a skipped check.

CyberNest Hub confirms the required controls before activation. Incomplete authorization, an unverified exclusion, or a missing campaign approval means the send waits.

Authorized contacts can stop pending sends at any time; already-delivered messages cannot be recalled. If a real incident needs attention, simulations pause and your firm's IT or incident-response provider takes the lead.

Start with your firm's current approach.
