Day 1
Your program is operational
Every day without documented security governance is a day your organization is exposed to audits, questionnaires, and incidents it cannot respond to systematically.

90% of breaches start with a person. Your auditor knows this.
Phishing accounts for over 80% of reported security incidents. Every framework — ISO 27001, NIST CSF, SOC 2, CMMC, PCI-DSS — requires a documented security awareness program. Auditors don’t accept “we send an email once a year.” They want a training program with modules, assessments, phishing simulations, completion tracking, and evidence of ongoing engagement.
This suite gives you 85 editable files — training modules, quizzes, phishing simulations, posters, trackers, and engagement materials. Launch a program next Monday, not next quarter.

When someone asks, here’s what happens
Auditor asks about your security awareness program
You show the training policy, annual calendar, completion tracker with rates by department, phishing simulation results, and knowledge assessment scores. A documented, measured program — not "we send an email."
Insurer asks about phishing resilience
You present phishing simulation click rates trending downward, training completion at 95%+, and role-specific training for finance and executive teams. The kind of evidence that improves your premium.
New employee joins the organization
They complete the onboarding security awareness module, take the knowledge assessment, and sign the acceptable use acknowledgment. Tracked automatically. Audit-ready from day one.
The cost comparison
Who this is for
✓ Right fit
Organizations that need a documented, measurable security awareness program for compliance — ISO 27001, SOC 2, CMMC, PCI-DSS. IT teams who don't have time to create training content from scratch. MSPs delivering awareness programs to multiple clients.
✗ Not the right fit
Organizations wanting video-based training with automated delivery — this provides editable document-based content, not a SaaS platform. If you need the delivery platform, pair this content with your existing LMS or email system.
Common questions
Is this a platform or a content library?
Content library. You get editable training modules, quizzes, phishing templates, posters, and tracking tools in Word and Excel format. Deliver through your existing channels — email, intranet, LMS, in-person sessions. No platform lock-in.
Can I customize the training content?
Everything is editable. Add your branding, modify examples to match your industry, adjust difficulty levels, and tailor role-specific content. The files are yours to customize permanently.
What frameworks require awareness training?
ISO 27001, NIST CSF 2.0, SOC 2, CMMC (all levels), PCI-DSS 4.0, and CIS Controls v8 all require documented security awareness programs. This suite maps to all of them.
What file formats are included?
Training modules and guides are Word (.docx). Trackers and dashboards are Excel (.xlsx). Posters are PDF. All compatible with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and LibreOffice.
Do I get updates if the product is improved?
Yes. If we update this product within 12 months of your purchase — framework changes, new templates, content improvements — you receive the updated files automatically at no additional cost. After 12 months, you keep everything you have permanently. Future updates are available at a renewal discount.
Is AI used in creating these documents?
Ridgeline uses AI tools in the research and drafting process. All documentation is written, reviewed, and validated by a security practitioner to ensure it is operationally sound and aligned with current frameworks.
