Store · Security Awareness & Human Risk
The best awareness platform trains no one by itself. What trains is the program, and a program needs someone to run it.
Signing up for an awareness tool is the easy part. The hard part is running the program: measuring the risk at the start, sending a campaign every month, chasing whoever did not finish, keeping the scenarios current and turning it all into a report. In a busy company, no one has that free hour, and human risk stays where it was, not because the tool is bad, but because the program never really ran.
Almost six in ten breaches today involve the human factor: a person deceived, manipulated or who made a mistake (Verizon, Data Breach Investigations Report, 2025).
Phishing and impersonation are the single most reported type of digital crime, and the reflex to doubt is built through repetition, not through a one-off action (FBI, Internet Crime Complaint Center, 2024).
Business email compromise, where the scammer poses as a boss or supplier, cost companies about 2.8 billion dollars in a single year (FBI, 2024).
And once the platform is signed up for, who, in your company, will have the time to plan the campaigns, chase whoever did not finish and turn the data into a report, month after month, without dropping their own job?
The real problem
The platform you can sign up for. But who runs the program, month after month, after the novelty fades?
Awareness is not a project with an end, it is an operation that repeats all year. That is where it almost always stalls, not for lack of a tool, but for lack of someone to run it. Here is where a self-run program usually dies, almost always quietly:
The license that became shelfware
The company signs up for an awareness platform, does the initial setup with enthusiasm, and three months later not a single campaign has gone out. The dashboard is empty, the subscription runs, and human risk is exactly where it was on day one. The tool was paid for, but the program never got started.
The campaign that stopped after the first month
The first simulation is a success, everyone talks about it, and then the day to day swallows the rest. The second campaign waits for next week, then for next month, and never happens. A one-off action builds no reflex at all: the next phishing wave finds the team the same way it would with no training at all.
The scramble of chasing who did not finish
Half the team started the training and did not finish. For the number to improve, someone has to chase each person, remind them, reschedule. In the daily rush, no one has that time, so completion stays low and the program, which seemed like a good idea, becomes just another forgotten folder.
The report that is missing at the right moment
A large client sends a security questionnaire, or the insurer ties the renewal to a simple question: how does the company handle the human factor? The data may exist somewhere in the tool, but no one turned it into a presentable report. The contract or the policy waits on an answer that is not ready.
The content stuck in last year
Scams change all the time: new fraud formats, links hidden in barcodes, voices imitated by artificial intelligence. But the campaigns keep testing last year's attack, because updating the content became no one's job. The program trains the team for a threat that has already changed its face.
None of this is a bad tool or a careless team. It is that running an effective awareness program is a recurring operation that competes with everyone's work, and almost always loses. That is exactly the operation Zamak takes over for you, end to end.
What it is
The awareness program, run end to end for you
The Managed Security Awareness Program is the ready-to-use version: the same phishing simulation and the same training, but planned, run and reported by Zamak, month after month, so the human layer actually works without becoming one more task for your team. Managed means Zamak takes over the operation, and you keep the result: you approve the plan at the start and receive, each cycle, a report with human risk falling and the recommendation of the next step. If you prefer to run it all in-house, that same program exists as a platform for your team to operate; here, the ones who operate it are us.
The program designed and run for you
Zamak starts by measuring where your human risk is today and designs the program for the year: campaigns by role and by risk level, with difficulty that grows each cycle. You approve the plan in one conversation; from there, the program runs every round, without you having to open the tool. What was an idle license becomes a program with a start, a rhythm and a direction.
The operation that never stops, with no weight on your team
Every month, without your team lifting a finger, the simulations go out, the few-minute training goes to whoever slips, whoever has not finished gets chased and the scenarios stay current as the scams change. It is the repetition that builds the reflex to doubt, check and report, and it is exactly that repetition which usually dies when the program depends on a free hour that never shows up.
The proof delivered ready, with the recommendation
Each cycle, the program turns the numbers into an executive report: human risk per team, the progress over time and the recommendation of the next step, in business language. You do not receive a dashboard to decode, you receive the conclusion, ready to present to the board, the insurer and the client. The human factor stops being a feeling and becomes a number that falls, with proof.

What is included
The program run for you, and the proof delivered ready
The Managed Program is not a loose course or a tool dropped on HR. It is a complete program, in your language and under your brand, that Zamak plans, runs and reports for you, on the Microsoft 365 your company already uses.
The program run by Zamak
Everything planned and run for you, month after month.
- A baseline at the start, to measure where human risk is today, before the first campaign.
- A calendar of recurring campaigns, designed by role and by risk level, and run for you.
- Difficulty that grows each cycle, keeping pace with the team's progress without letting the training get too easy.
- The right few-minute training assigned right away to whoever slips, with follow-up on whoever has not finished.
- The scenarios updated each cycle, so the practice keeps up with the scams that change all the time.
The proof, the recommendation and the follow-through
Everything you receive ready, without having to read any dashboard.
- An executive report with human risk per team and the progress over time, ready to present.
- The recommendation of the next step each cycle, in business language, not a screen of data to decode.
- A review conversation each quarter, to read the results together and adjust the program's direction.
- The whole program in your language and under your company's brand, on the Microsoft 365 you already use.
- The close follow-through from Zamak, alongside whoever already runs your IT, never in their place.
How the program works
How the program is run, under the hood
For those who want to look under the hood: the program runs all year at a defined pace. A baseline at the start, recurring campaigns every month, difficulty that grows, the right training in under 10 minutes at the moment of the slip and an executive report each quarter. Here are the pieces the program runs for you, month after month.
The baseline that opens the program
The first campaign measures, with no warning, how your team reacts today to a realistic scam. That honest picture becomes the starting point against which all the progress is compared. Without it, there is no way to prove that risk fell, only a feeling that it maybe did.
The calendar of recurring campaigns
Instead of a one-off action, Zamak runs campaigns at a defined pace, month by month or each quarter, because the reflex to doubt is only built through repetition. You approve the calendar once; every round is run for you, the focus is adjusted, and the program stays alive without depending on someone remembering.
Difficulty that grows and training on the spot
Each cycle raises the level of the simulated scam, keeping pace with the team's progress, and whoever falls gets the few-minute module for that specific mistake right away. The program never gets too easy or generic: it pulls the team a step higher, at the pace of those who are learning.
The aim by role and by risk
Not everyone runs the same risk. Whoever handles payments, access or sensitive data gets more frequent and specific campaigns, while the rest of the team keeps the practice pace. That way the effort goes where the risk is, and is not wasted treating everyone the same.
The dashboard and the executive report
Each simulation and each training feed a risk score per person and per team, turned into an executive report with the progress over time. You do not need to open the dashboard: you receive the reading ready, with the conclusion and the recommendation of the next step, in business language.
The deliverables and the agreed service level
The program comes with scope, pace and deliverables agreed in writing, so you know exactly what the program runs, how often and what you receive each cycle. The human layer stops depending on goodwill and a free hour, and becomes an operation with an owner and a deadline.
The program is billed per employee, in a single managed subscription that brings together the operation run by Zamak and the platform underneath, which keeps the cost predictable as the team grows. The platform that holds and processes the data is independently audited to SOC 2 Type 2, complies with the GDPR and undergoes annual penetration testing.
It is the difference between having an idle license in a dashboard and having a program that runs all year, run by people, with human risk measured and falling.

How it compares
The program run for you, next to the common ways of handling the human factor
The difference that weighs most is not the tool, it is who runs the program. Most companies do it one of two ways: they sign up for a tool and try to run it themselves, or they tick the box with a compliance video once a year. See what changes when the operation has an owner.

From risk to impact
From the operation no one runs to business impact
The tool is bought, set up and becomes shelfware: not a single campaign goes out.
The money is spent, human risk stays where it was and a false sense of being protected is born.
How the managed program responds
The program runs every campaign from the first month, so the protection actually starts working, instead of staying on paper.
An email poses as a director and asks for an unusual urgent payment.
The money is transferred to the scammer and almost never comes back (about 2.8 billion dollars in a year, FBI, 2024).
How the managed program responds
The team practices this scam each cycle and gains the reflex of confirming through another channel before paying.
A large client or the insurer asks for proof of how the company handles the human factor.
There is no report ready, and the contract or the policy is at risk over an unanswered requirement.
How the managed program responds
An executive report with documented progress is already ready and answers the question with proof.
Scams evolve faster than a calendar run on your own.
People train against last year's attack and stay exposed to today's scam.
How the managed program responds
The scenarios are refreshed each cycle, keeping the practice at the level of the current threat.
In all these cases, what changes is not luck. It is having someone run the program all year, with the team practicing and the proof ready when someone outside asks.
For every role
What changes for each role in your company
The same managed program, read through the eyes of whoever decides, owns the cost and runs the environment.
Owner and founder
Build it, protect it, grow its value.
You do not have to turn your company into a security training operation. You buy the outcome: a trained team and the proof in hand, with the program running on us. Protection stops being a bet and starts opening doors: it closes deals that require security, helps keep the company insurable and lowers the risk of a costly fraud, which weighs in your favor on the company's value.
Manager and director
Predictable cost. No surprises.
The human factor stops being your biggest invisible worry and becomes a number you present with confidence, without costing a single hour of your team. For a fraction of what a single fraud would cost, you have the risk measured, the progress documented and the peace of mind of answering client questionnaires and insurer requirements without scrambling, with the proof already in order.
IT lead and team
A secure extension of your team.
This is the security task you can hand off whole and still own the result. Zamak takes over the operation no one has time to run, launching, chasing, updating and reporting, while you stay in command and gain the human risk data to justify the security investment upstairs. It runs on the Microsoft 365 you already have, alongside your team, never in its place.
IT partner and provider
Offer the program ready under your brand.
Bring your clients an awareness program that actually runs, under your own brand, in their language, without building the operation yourself. You enter the conversation with the program ready and run, become the partner who also handles the human factor and preserve the relationship, while Zamak operates the silent backline at your side.
Why Zamak
Why Zamak
The human layer only protects when someone actually runs the program, month after month, in the team's language and alongside the technical defense, not when a license sits idle in a dashboard. Your human layer finally gets an owner: Zamak plans, runs and proves the program end to end, alongside whoever already runs your IT and security, never in their place. The same team that protects your machines now runs the program that protects your people.
In the end, it is the difference between signing up for one more tool and hoping someone runs it, and having a program that runs all year, with the team practicing, human risk falling and the proof in hand when the client, the insurer or the auditor asks.
