Cybersecurity threats don’t wait for annual training day. That’s why we’re expanding the BizLibrary Collection with a new producer partner built around practice, not just awareness.
We’ve added Inspired eLearning, powered by VIPRE, as a new producer partner in the BizLibrary Collection. The content is included at no additional charge and uses scenario-based, roleplay-style training instead of passive video. Launch topics include phishing, AI threats, ransomware, privileged user security, and executive cybersecurity.
| Metric | Figure |
|---|---|
| Global average cost of a data breach (2025) | $4.44 million |
| US average cost of a data breach (2025) | $10.22 million, an all-time high |
| Phishing, the most common attack vector | 16% of breaches, $4.8 million average cost |
| AI’s effect on phishing | Email creation time cut from 16 hours to 5 minutes |

Interactive Cybersecurity Training For Employees
Interactive cybersecurity training for employees is the idea driving this partnership. Phishing alone accounts for 16% of all data breaches and averages $4.8 million in cost per incident. That’s the gap this training is built to close.
Traditional security awareness content leans on watching and remembering. This content leans on deciding.
Learners work through a simulated inbox, follow a day-in-the-life scenario, or explore a risk from the attacker’s side, practicing the call they’ll need to make before a real threat lands in their actual workflow.
That practice has a track record. Organizations running consistent, realistic phishing simulations have cut click rates from an industry baseline of around 33% down to under 5%, based on an analysis of more than 67 million simulations. The gap between watching a video and making the call yourself shows up directly in the numbers.
This content is already part of the BizLibrary Collection, included at no additional charge. No extra purchase, no separate specialty library.
Because practice makes ready.
This same shift, from watching to doing, is what BizReady brings to skills across your organization. AI-powered coaching and roleplays turn any lesson into hands-on practice, from difficult conversations to customer service to leadership feedback.
Scenario-Based Security Awareness Training in Action
Scenario-based security awareness training puts learners inside the decision itself, working through a simulated inbox or branching storyline rather than watching one play out on screen. Inspired eLearning builds this through roleplay simulations, phishing games, narrative scenarios, and diagnostic assessments, including test-out options for employees who already know the material.
That last part matters more than it might seem. Test-out options respect people’s time, which is one of the fastest ways to lose an audience in mandatory training.
The content is also backed by real-time threat intelligence, so courses stay current as cyber risk evolves rather than sitting static until someone remembers to update them. That matters more now than ever: generative AI has cut phishing email creation time from 16 hours down to 5 minutes, and the threats employees face today look nothing like the ones from even a year ago.
Phishing Simulation Training and the Initial Course Lineup
Phishing simulation training is one of the first topics live now, alongside AI threats, ransomware, safe web browsing, appropriate social media use, privileged user security, and information security for executives.
Most employees have already seen some version of these attempts without realizing it:
- A fake help desk email. Asks them to re-verify their password through a link that isn’t the real login page.
- An urgent “executive” request. Looks like it’s from leadership, asking for a wire transfer or a batch of gift cards.
- A shipping notice from nowhere. Prompts a click to “reschedule delivery” from a courier they don’t recognize.
- A vendor invoice with altered details. Sent from an address that looks almost right, with payment info that’s just slightly off.
- A recruiting message on LinkedIn. Comes with an attachment or link that leads somewhere else entirely.
These are the exact patterns learners practice spotting inside Inspired eLearning’s scenario-based courses, before they show up in a real inbox.
How This Fits Into Your Cybersecurity Training Programs
Cybersecurity training programs rarely come down to one course. They’re built from multiple layers working together, and Inspired eLearning adds a strong new layer to that system. If you’re still building out the framework itself, our guide on building an effective cybersecurity training program walks through goal-setting, format mix, and platform selection in more depth.
