HEROES by CyBehave · Add-on module

Network Optimisation

In development · requires Measure & Evidence first

For the coordinator who has inherited a network and the group programme manager.

Base captures your Champion influence map and shows coverage by team, site and function. Network Optimisation adds Network Strength, the composite measure of the network, and builds on that: see the shape of your network in detail, who bridges teams, who is isolated, which areas nobody reaches yet, and where the next recruit would strengthen it most.

Social Network Analysis

Champion Networks that actually work

Effective Security Champions programmes are not about finding one heroic individual who gives presentations on password hygiene. They are about building a network of trusted peers across different roles, teams, and functions - each one positioned to influence the people around them in ways that a central security team never can.

Behavioural science tells us that people adopt behaviours because of social proof, trust, and peer modelling - not because of awareness presentations. Your Champions need to be embedded across your organisation, visible to different audiences, and credible in their own context.

Heroes' Social Network Analysis maps the real influence topology of your Champion network - identifying who is connecting teams, who is isolated, and where the programme is fragile before it becomes a problem.

Key Bridge Nodes
Champions who connect otherwise isolated teams. Losing them fragments the network - Heroes identifies them before engagement drops.
Influence Reach
Who is each Champion actually influencing? Mapped by connections, not assumed by job title.
At-Risk Detection
Champions showing declining engagement surface automatically, so programme leaders can intervene early - not after they have already disengaged.
Cluster Health
Understand whether your Champion coverage is concentrated in one area or genuinely distributed across the organisation.

What it would add

Everything this module brings to the base platform.

Module contents are being finalised and may change before release. Network Optimisation requires Measure & Evidence, whose data it analyses, so that module comes first.

Network Strength: a composite measure of the network, reported by the Champions themselves
Interactive network analysis: who bridges teams, who is isolated, and which areas nobody reaches yet
Ranking and centrality, showing whose position carries a message furthest
Network density, and where the next recruit would strengthen coverage the most
Succession planning and single-link coverage risk, so the network outlasts any one Champion
Champion 360 feedback from the colleagues each Champion supports
Recruitment targeting drawn from the gaps, so every new Champion adds reach

Already in Base. The Champion influence map, Champion check-ins and coverage by team, site and function are part of the base platform. This module adds the Network Strength measure, reported by the Champions themselves, and builds on that data with detailed analysis and targeting. It also draws on the trend and breakdown data collected by Measure & Evidence, so that module is required alongside it.

Start with Base. Add this when your network is ready.

Network Optimisation is in development. The influence map it builds on is in the base platform today, and Measure & Evidence, which it requires, comes first.
