Madrid, 2 August 2022.
Banco Santander is launching a new interactive cyber-fraud training called Cyber Heroes. The initiative, which is based on training previously shared with the bank's 200,000 employees worldwide, is now open to anyone to use as Santander wants to help its customers and communities to stay safe online, be more aware about cybercrime and avoid fraud.
In this training, people are presented with everyday situations that anyone could face online. Users are then offered simple security tips and advice to help protect them against scams, such as phishing and smishing (fraudulent messages in order to trick people to falling for a scam via e-mail or SMS, respectively). There are also additional educational materials available to download at the end of each module, including a guide for secure online shopping and step-by-step infographics. The training is available in Spanish, English, Portuguese and Polish. Cyber Heroes is available to anyone, customers and non-customers, here.
