SAN FRANCISCO, April 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspired eLearning Powered by VIPRE, part of industry-leader and award-winning global cybersecurity, privacy, and data protection company VIPRE Security Group, announced today that it will feature its latest gamification training solution at the 2023 RSA Conference at San Francisco's Moscone Center Apr. 24 – 27, 2023. RSA is one of the sector's largest, most-prestigious assemblies of security professionals from across the globe.

Inspired eLearning will showcase innovative cybersecurity training courses and programs along with their entire suite of email and endpoint security solutions in booth #4134. The company's gamified cybersecurity awareness training is designed to keep employees engaged during training courses. These courses are designed to reduce human error, help users recognize cybersecurity threats, and increase user retention of security best practices.

"At VIPRE, our commitment to cybersecurity education is rooted in our understanding of the importance of educating every organization's employees on best practices and the ever-evolving threat landscape – threats organizations face each day," said Usman Choudhary, chief product and technology officer at VIPRE Security Group. "Because training is vital to ensuring organizations can defend against the latest threats, we are excited to unveil our latest innovation in cybersecurity training: a next-generation gamified phishing course that puts users in the shoes of a white hat hacker. This approach allows users to create phishing emails and learn through hands-on experience, providing an engaging and effective way for employees to understand the tricks cybercriminals use and retain that knowledge over time."

According to Choudhary, VIPRE's goal in training course development is to make learning fun, interactive, and memorable.

Through VIPRE's gamified training, it is helping to protect organizations of all sizes, from small startups to large enterprises. Next-generation gamified phishing simulations raise the bar for cybersecurity training and empower organizations to stay ahead of the threat landscape.

At RSA, John Trest, VIPRE Security Group's chief learning officer leading the development of Inspired eLearning's courses, will be available to discuss tips for gamifying a cybersecurity awareness training program, including identifying problems with an existing training setup, understanding the needs of the audience, and determining desired outcomes to deliver the most effective way for students to learn.

"Often, security awareness trainers and training admins have to contend with common, learning pain points," Trest said. "These include learner motivation, retention of the information learned during the training session, etc. Gamification is an excellent training option to blend into your program and help address these pitfalls, engage your employees, and drive a more successful and impactful training program overall."

Since 2008, the Inspired eLearning team has produced award-winning content designed for employee retention, learning, and engagement. Learn more about gamification and all of the VIPRE solutions by visiting the VIPRE website or at RSA booth 4134.
