How Atea Built a Security-First Culture Across the Nordics and Baltics
Published on: 9 Jul 2026
Transforming Cyber Security Awareness Across 9,000 Employees
From Annual Compliance to Continuous Security Awareness
For Atea, protecting nearly 9,000 employees across seven countries required more than annual training. As cyber threats have evolved, the organisation saw the need for a more proactive approach to security awareness that could influence employee behaviour all year round.
Operating across the Nordics and Baltics, they needed a consistent programme that could unify training across regions, respond quickly to emerging threats, and provide measurable insight into employee behaviour.
In partnership with MetaCompliance, Atea replaced annual training with a continuous awareness programme combining bite-sized learning, phishing simulations, policy management, and targeted campaigns.
The result? Stronger phishing resilience, greater employee engagement, and a lasting shift towards a security-first culture.
Replaced annual compliance training with continuous security awareness
Unified cyber awareness across countries with a consistent learning experience
Improved phishing resilience through ongoing simulations and learning
Embedded security into everyday work with targeted awareness campaigns
Why continuous security awareness drives lasting behavioural change
Atea’s experience demonstrates how effective cyber security awareness extends beyond annual compliance training. Reducing human risk requires continuous learning that adapts to new threats, reinforces secure behaviours, and keeps employees engaged throughout the year.
By combining ongoing education with phishing simulations and measurable reporting, organisations can build a stronger security culture, improve resilience against evolving attacks, and give leadership clear visibility into programme effectiveness across the business.
