Traditional awareness programs tend to stop at phishing prevention and general IT security practices, which do little to prepare employees working around industrial systems. What makes Cambios training different is its direct focus on operational technology environments, where a mistake can have physical outcomes rather than just digital consequences. Instead of generic advice, it teaches employees how to recognize, respond to, and prevent the types of cyber risks that can disrupt entire production lines or create hazards that threaten safety—something no standard IT-focused program addresses.

In operational technology, there is no cushion for error, and the stakes are dramatically different from an office IT system. Untrained staff can unintentionally trigger safety incidents, production shutdowns, or even large-scale damage. This training is uniquely designed to prepare a workforce for those realities by embedding cybersecurity awareness into the operational context. It recognizes that employees at every level—from engineers to front-line operators—contribute to an organization’s defense posture. Instead of treating security as an add-on, the program integrates it into the daily responsibilities of industrial work, ensuring the entire workforce can operate confidently in complex environments where both safety and uptime are non-negotiable.

The shortage of professionals equipped with both IT knowledge and OT awareness means organizations often rely on employees who have blind spots when it comes to securing industrial systems. This training stands apart by bridging that gap. It does not assume that IT principles are automatically transferable to operational technology. Instead, it introduces the unique characteristics of OT networks, explains why conventional IT fixes can cause harm, and prepares staff to think critically about the interplay of safety, reliability, and security in ways that other programs simply don’t cover.

Many incidents are not the result of malicious intent, but of employees applying the wrong type of knowledge to the wrong environment. IT staff may try to implement patches that destabilize systems designed to run continuously, while operators may unknowingly make changes without grasping their security implications. Contractors often use personal devices that aren’t hardened against industrial threats, and maintenance staff can make seemingly minor errors that have significant consequences. What sets this training apart is that it doesn’t just tell employees what not to do; it shows them how their exact roles intersect with cybersecurity and equips them with clear, situation-specific practices designed for industrial settings.

Yes, we do offer group discounts to make it easy and cost-effective for entire teams to complete their OT/ICS security training together. By enrolling multiple employees at once, your organization not only saves on training costs but also ensures consistent knowledge and skills across the workforce. This approach allows teams to be trained quickly and uniformly, helping you strengthen security readiness at scale while supporting compliance and operational safety goals.
