Abstract

A cybersecurity training system uses lures and training actions to help train a user of an electronic device to recognize and act appropriately in situations that could compromise security. The system includes an administrator interface by which an administrator may customize a lure and/or a training action with branded content. When used in a lure, this enables the lure to appear to the user as if it were a legitimate, non-threatening action from the brand. If the user falls for the lure, the system may provide the user with cybersecurity training, which may automatically include content that is tailored for the selected brand.
