Training tells people what to do. It does not change what they do when nobody is watching. This page is for the programme that has done the awareness work, seen the metrics plateau, and wants the next thing: behaviour that measurably changes, across the whole organisation, and the evidence to show it.
Behaviour needs three things at once: the capability to do it, the opportunity to do it where the work happens, and the motivation to bother. Awareness only ever touches the first. When completion is high and click rates have flattened, the programme has run out of things that knowledge can fix, and the next gains come from the other two.
That is the COM-B model, the basis of the Behaviour Change Wheel, and the diagnostic underneath everything Heroes does. Read the primer: Behavioural cybersecurity 101.
Real behaviour change has a shape, and it is the same shape whether you run it from a spreadsheet or a platform. Heroes is built to run it, in plain language, without anyone needing to be a behavioural scientist.
Choose a small number of priority behaviours rather than a calendar of topics, and understand which of capability, opportunity or motivation is in the way.
Design an intervention against the diagnosis, with a stated expected effect, and run it through Champions in the teams where the behaviour happens.
Measure the behaviour as observed by colleagues, every wave, so a change is a change in what people do, not a change in what they completed.
Every Heroes subscription starts with Base, and Base runs the whole loop above. A programme that buys nothing else can change behaviour and show it.
Pick the behaviours that matter to your organisation from CyBehave's behaviour catalogue, so the programme has a target rather than a theme.
Eight steps from naming a behaviour to scaling what worked, following the SHIELD method with the science built in and the jargon left out.
Tasks, campaigns, comms with AI review and recognition, so the people with credibility in each team deliver the change in the flow of work.
Security behaviour as observed by colleagues, measured every wave. Independent of your training platform and of the Champions themselves. The one outcome measure.
Three add-on modules take the loop further: deeper evidence, the network measured and optimised, and the full behavioural method with its workings shown. They are in development and close to general availability, and you can plan for them now with published pricing. Risk & Incidents, the fourth module, is available today.
Programme Capability, the composite measure of how well the programme is run, and evidence of change a board will act on.
Network Strength, the composite measure of the network, and the analysis to strengthen it where it matters.
The complete method for the practitioner who wants the full toolkit and every score's workings.
CyBehave runs an ongoing research programme in behavioural cybersecurity and publishes the frameworks, models and instruments openly, so you can see what the platform measures, how, and why. The capability above is that research becoming product.
