CyberNut was built for K-12.
Not adapted. Not watered down. Built.

K-12 from day one

Designed with former IT leaders and educators on staff — not adapted from corporate training. Every simulation, every lesson, every report: made for how schools actually work.

30 seconds, not 30 minutes

Your staff told us their old training was “a chore.” CyberNut’s micro-lessons take less time than a bathroom break, and completion rates are 3x higher. Training that actually gets done.

Training + threat removal in one

Other platforms stop at training. CyberNut goes further. When a threat is reported, it’s removed from every inbox across the district in one click. More reports. Fewer threats.

K-12 from day one

Designed alongside dozens of K-12 CTOs and CISOs — not adapted from corporate training. Every simulation, every lesson, every report: made for how schools actually work.

400+ districts
made the switch.
Here’s why they stay.

1. The Problem
We were seeing too many staff clicks on phishing emails, and our previous training felt too generic to drive real change. It also took too much time from our IT team to manage. 

2. The Switch
Rolling out CyberNut was simple and smooth for us. The setup was automated, the onboarding was quick, and it fit into our day to day operations with very little disruption. 

3. The Results
CyberNut helped us reduce our phishing click rate from 31% to 2%. We also reported 463 real threats through the platform, showing clear improvement in both awareness and response. 

4. The Culture
CyberNut helped us build a stronger security culture across the district. Our staff became more engaged, more aware, and more proactive about reporting threats instead of missing them.

1. The Problem
Our previous cybersecurity training was not engaging, did not fit well into teachers’ schedules, and was not improving behavior enough. Staff were still clicking suspicious emails, and we knew we needed a better approach.

2. The Switch
CyberNut was easy for us to implement and did not create extra burden on our team. The full setup took less than eight hours, and the platform was simple enough to manage without a heavy lift.

3. The Results
CyberNut helped us lower our phishing click rate from 25% to 2%. Our staff also reported over 600 suspicious emails, including real phishing threats that were removed through the CyberNut portal.

4. The Culture
CyberNut changed how our staff responded to security threats across the district. We saw reporting go up, risky clicks go down, and overall awareness become part of how we operate every day.
