Frequently Asked Questions

Planning Your ISA Month Campaign?

Here are answers to the questions enterprise HR, L&D, compliance and information security teams commonly ask.

Do we need to use all five Cyber Security Awareness Month formats?

No. The campaign can be configured around the formats that best suit your workforce and awareness goals. You may choose a single solution such as eLearning or combine courses, games, flipbooks and short videos into a broader month-long campaign.

Can we use the Information Security Awareness content on our existing LMS?

Yes. If your organisation already has an LMS, the relevant digital learning content can be deployed through your existing learning ecosystem, subject to the selected content format and technical requirements.

What if we do not have an LMS or engagement platform?

You can use our gamified platform to bring your ISA Month campaign together in one place. Employees can access assigned learning and games, earn points and badges and participate in the organisation-wide leaderboard.

Can the ISA content be customised to our organisation’s policies?

Yes. Content can be adapted based on the agreed scope to reflect your organisation’s branding, policies, terminology, reporting channels and relevant information security practices. Final scope is confirmed during consultation.

Can we customise The City Salvage questions for our organisation?

Yes. The InfoSec questions and challenges can be aligned to agreed organisational policies, security practices and campaign themes as part of the customisation scope.

Can the campaign be branded for our organisation?

Yes. Depending on the selected solution, the campaign experience can incorporate your organisation’s logo and relevant brand elements so that it feels like an internal awareness initiative.

Can different employee groups receive different learning content?

Yes. The campaign can be structured so that different audiences receive the learning formats or modules most relevant to them. Specific audience segmentation and assignment options will depend on the selected deployment model.

Can employees earn points and badges across different ISA activities?

Yes, when the campaign is deployed through the gamified platform. Courses, games and eligible activities can contribute to the overall engagement experience, with points, badges and leaderboard participation configured around the campaign design.

Can we run team-wise or department-wise competitions?

The campaign can be designed to encourage friendly competition across employees, teams, departments or other agreed groups where supported by the selected platform configuration.

How long should an ISA Month campaign run?

The campaign is designed to support Information Security Awareness Month in October. Organisations can spread learning and engagement activities across the month rather than delivering everything at once. The exact campaign calendar can be planned around your workforce and communication schedule.

Can you help us plan the complete October engagement calendar?

Yes. The campaign can be planned as a sequence of learning, reinforcement and gamified touchpoints, for example starting with foundational training and then using short videos, policy refreshers, games and leaderboard activities throughout the month.

Are the Reel-style videos limited to the topics shown on this page?

No. The topics shown in mockups are illustrative. The final video topics can be selected based on the agreed campaign scope and your organisation’s key information security awareness priorities.

Can we use only The City Salvage game without purchasing the complete platform?

The available deployment options depend on the intended number of users, campaign setup and technical requirements. Talk to us and we will walk you through the options that fit your campaign.

How quickly can the campaign be deployed?

Deployment timelines depend on the selected formats, number of users, customisation requirements, branding and platform setup. Speak with our team for a campaign plan and implementation timeline.
