Built for how schools actually run.

This isn't corporate training with the logos swapped, Cybermate's school scenarios are the scams schools actually see. It's cybersecurity for schools done properly: staff cybersecurity awareness training built around fee invoice fraud, fake parent emails and deepfake impersonation, not generic office scenarios. Cybermate learns from your people and tailors training to their roles, environment and behaviour.

Fee invoice fraud

Simulations of changed-bank-details invoices and fake excursion payments, the scams that hit school offices.

Fake parent emails

Impersonation drills for front office staff, with instant friendly coaching when someone clicks.

Deepfake support

Staff-targeted deepfakes are now weekly events in Australian schools. We train recognition and give leaders a response playbook.

AI safety for staff

Practical AI safety guardrails aligned to the Australian Framework for Generative AI in Schools, what never goes into a chatbot, and why.

Fits a staff meeting

Micro-lessons under a minute. Completion certificates that can count toward teachers' PD hours.

Evidence for insurers

Training and simulation reports in the format cyber insurance assessors ask schools for.

Built for students too, not just staff.

Years 7-12 face a different set of scams to the staffroom, from catfishing and deepfake pressure to gaming account theft and homework help from a chatbot that shouldn't see private information. Cybermate gives students their own age-appropriate track, separate from staff training, so schools can cover the whole community without extra workload.

Age-appropriate scenarios

Lessons calibrated by year level, not the same module recycled from Year 7 to Year 12, so the scams feel real for each age group.

Deepfakes & catfishing

Recognising deepfake pressure, catfishing and image-based abuse, with a clear, non-judgemental path to tell a trusted adult.

Safe AI for schoolwork

What's fine to ask a chatbot, and what should never go in: personal details, family information, or anyone else's work.

Fits a home-group slot

Micro-lessons under a minute, short enough for roll call or pastoral care time, with progress visible to teachers, not classmates.
