What is the uSecure platform?

Calculate human risk, Empower the workforce and Secure your business.

Measure, reduce and monitor employee cyber risk through automated Human Risk Management (HRM) — the new class of user-focused security.

Humans are your strongest line of defence, but security awareness training alone won’t transform user behaviour. Human Risk Management (HRM) is the one-stop solution for building a security-savvy workforce.

• Drive security awareness
  Assess and strengthen each user’s security knowledge gaps through regular, bite-sized training courses that are prioritised based on their risk areas.
• Boost phishing resilience
  Identify which employees are susceptible to sophisticated and common phishing attacks through periodic simulations, and educate those who show high risk.
• Monitor stolen credentials
  Safeguard exposed user accounts that could be used to launch targeted attacks by monitoring the dark web for stolen credentials (such as passwords).
• Simplify policy processes
  Keep users well-versed on security policies and procedures by requesting and tracking eSignature approvals from a preloaded library of core documents.

“We’re proud to partner with labdesk.
At uSecure, we protect businesses from evolving cyber threats. labdesk shares our commitment to supporting the energy sector with all things Cyber Security and technology. Together, we help keep critical teams and supply chains in the sector secure.”
