Cybersecurity awareness training for employees in Ghana

Mobile money fraud, phishing and fake payment requests cost Ghanaian organisations money and trust every year. Training your staff to recognise and report these attacks is one of the most practical defences you have.

What Ghanaian organisations are up against

  • Mobile money and SIM-swap fraud
  • Phishing for email, banking and payroll logins
  • Fake supplier invoices and requests to change bank or wallet details
  • Impersonation of directors by phone, WhatsApp or AI-cloned voice
  • Data breaches under the Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843)

The legal background

Act 843 requires reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, and the Cybersecurity Act, 2020 (Act 1038) created the Cyber Security Authority to regulate cybersecurity. Trained staff, and records of that training, are part of showing you take both seriously.

What good awareness training covers

  • Recognising scams by email, SMS, WhatsApp and phone
  • Verifying payment requests by call-back to a known number
  • Strong passwords and multi-factor authentication
  • Handling personal data under Act 843
  • Safe use of AI tools
  • Reporting incidents quickly, without blame
