Protecting the Public Starts with Protecting Your People
At Cyber Rebels, we believe that public trust depends on digital integrity. Whether you’re delivering essential services, managing citizen data, or running critical systems, your role in government or the public sector comes with high expectations—and high risk.
Cyber threats don’t stop at the private sector. In fact, attackers often see councils, agencies, and government bodies as prime targets: high value, under-resourced, and under pressure. And when an incident happens, it’s not just systems at stake—it’s public confidence.
That’s why we deliver training that helps your people stay sharp, alert, and secure. From admin teams to leadership, our goal is to build a cyber-aware workforce that protects systems, data, and the people who rely on them.
Why Cyber Awareness Is Essential in the Public Sector
The public sector faces a unique blend of cyber risk. Large volumes of sensitive data. Legacy systems under strain. Time-poor teams managing frontline services. All of this makes local authorities and public bodies an attractive target for phishing, ransomware, and social engineering attacks.
When systems go down, it’s more than an IT issue. Benefit payments get delayed. Planning approvals stall. Emergency services lose access to critical records. These aren’t just technical disruptions—they’re service failures with real human impact.
But most incidents don’t start with a sophisticated hack—they start with a click. Our mission is to help public sector teams spot those moments before they become crises.
What You Can Expect from Our Training
We run live, engaging training sessions—virtually or on-site—designed for the real-world pace and pressures of public sector work. No tech jargon. No scare tactics. Just practical guidance that’s relevant to the roles and risks in your team.
We cover everyday threats your staff may face: phishing emails pretending to be from internal departments, suspicious data requests, dodgy attachments, and weak passwords. We also highlight how to protect citizen data in line with GDPR and public sector IT governance.
Each session is shaped to fit your department’s structure—whether that’s central services, remote teams, or public-facing staff. Your team will walk away with clear, confident steps to spot threats and respond appropriately.
We also support compliance with frameworks like Cyber Essentials, Public Services Network (PSN) standards, and government cyber assurance requirements, helping you build security into your core responsibilities.
How We Support Local Authorities & Public Sector Teams
We understand that government and public service teams operate under resource pressure, tight deadlines, and high accountability. Our training is built to be flexible, efficient, and immediately useful—whether you’re onboarding new staff, refreshing teams, or responding to recent threats.
We tailor each session to your environment, using scenarios drawn from real-world attacks on UK councils, NHS bodies, and public sector organisations. The result? Training that’s clear, familiar, and directly relevant to your day-to-day.
This isn’t about ticking off a policy—it’s about making cybersecurity part of your service culture. Like data protection, safeguarding, or risk management, cyber awareness should be part of every public sector role. We help make that happen.
Is Your Team Prepared?
If a staff member received a fake supplier invoice today, would they know how to check it? If someone accidentally exposed citizen data, would your team know what steps to take next?
We offer a free, no-pressure consultation to help you assess risks, review your current awareness, and plan a training solution that fits your organisation. It’s not about blame—it’s about building confidence.
