IT security in the digital real estate industry
Real estate transactions are largely digital, making IT security an essential part of day-to-day operations in the real estate industry. RealMæglerne handles large amounts of sensitive personal data that home buyers and sellers entrust them with, making them an attractive target for cybercriminals.
Before working with Moxso, RealMæglerne experienced challenges with employees' general awareness of IT security. They needed a structured and effective training solution that not only informs but also engages employees.
Hands-on training that drives engagement
Moxso helped RealMæglerne implement a proactive training solution that not only informs, but engages employees. Through a continuous program of phishing simulations and cybersecurity training, employees have been prepared to handle different types of cyberattacks. The hands-on approach makes the training relevant and tangible, so employees learn to recognize attacks in their daily work. This not only increases their knowledge of IT security, but also gives them the experience they need to react quickly if they are exposed to a real-life attack.
A security culture that protects the business
Today, IT security has become an ingrained part of RealMæglerne's culture. Employees are more aware of the threats they face daily and know how to respond to them. The result of the training is not only better cybersecurity, but a culture where everyone in the organization feels responsible for protecting customer data.
At the recent AGM, RealMæglerne in Rønne was awarded the coveted “Security Pin” award for having the highest score in the chain in terms of resilience to cyber threats. This recognition is a clear sign that they have managed to implement a security solution that works both in practice and in daily work.
