Included in the mobile responsive offerings are two new mini-modules: Protecting Against Ransomware and USB Device Safety. The ransomware mini-module provides brief, yet comprehensive training on how to spot and help prevent rising ransomware attacks across all industries.

Offering employees these flexible, accessible options allows them to find time to complete trainings when they are the most engaged and really digest the lessons presented," said Joe Ferrara President and CEO, Wombat Security. "This first set of mobile-responsive modules is part of the continuous effort to equip organizations with the best tools to educate their employees about cyber security in an ever-changing landscape." Additionally, thse mobile-responsive modules conform to the U.S. Section 508 standard and the international Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 AA standard, ensuring end users with disabilities have access to complete training requirements. The 508 & WCAG compliance enhances the features Wombat already offered multinational companies, including content offered in more than 25 languages. Mobile-Responsive Modules Now Available
