How Can Native Intelligence Help You Meet Your Goals?

Security awareness prevents financial loss and reputation damage. When your workforce is security-savvy:

  • The number and severity of security incidents decline
  • The risk of lawsuits and fines declines
  • Productivity increases (fewer interruptions from loss of availability)
  • Public confidence in your organization's ability to protect sensitive customer, partner, and busness data increaes (safe harbors provide a natural competitive advantage)

We have deep experience in helping clients meet their security awareness needs, from individual courses to complete programs. Founded in 1995 with a focus on Security Awareness, Native Intelligence brings innovation, customer-driven design, and proven results (more than a million seats of training delivered) to increasing workforce security awareness for our clients.

Just as the quality of a diamond is measured by the 4 C's (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight), four qualities make Native Intelligence stand out from other security awareness and elearning providers. These C's are our dedication to:

  • Customer Care and Satisfaction
  • Compelling Content
  • Clear Communications
  • Comprehensive Offerings

Our clients benefit from our responsiveness, enthusiasm, and dedication to excellence in service.

We are a Maryland-based, woman- and Native American-owned small business.

Our most popular presentations

Tales from the Cryptolocker

The Tales from the Cryptolocker presentation runs from 60-75 minutes (but can be shorter if desired), depending on audience interaction and questions after. People learn well from stories, which is what makes this presentation so effective. Tales from the Cryptolocker shares 13 stories of cyber crimes and incidents, each followed by points on how to prevent or minimize loss in similar situations. This presentation is engaging for all hands and has also held the attention and generated glowing feedback from self-described “tough" audiences (technical staff and executives).

Security Awareness Top 3

Passwords. Phishing. Protecting Information. These are among the top 3 concerns of many organizations. This interactive, story-based presentation uses the rule of 3’s with slides that tap into the emotional side of the audience while the stories speak to the audience’s logical side. Each of the three topics is presented with three stories or scenarios, and three take-away lessons. Client feedback says that audience members are still talking about this presentation weeks after it’s been given. (60-90 minutes)

Native American Security Awareness

In this presentation, K Rudolph relates her heritage to modern cyber security issues. In many Native American traditions, the learning is not complete until it is passed on. Among the topics linking the Native American tradition with today’s technology are counting coup, trackers, encryption, firewalls, and digital forensics. Audience participation is rewarded. (45 minutes)

Seven Secrets of Awareness

Have some fun as an experienced awareness trainer/course developer refreshes your view and teaches you some new tricks for making messages stick through demonstrations, interactive exercises, and storytelling. Learn first-hand how to communicate in ways that work with, rather than against, the brain. Audience participation is encouraged and will be rewarded.

This presentation provides practical ways for attendees to make their security awareness and training program and content more effective. The first secret will be introduced through an interactive exercise that demonstrates how to deliver memorable content and engage learners. Attendees will leave with specific techniques and examples that they can use within their organizations. Participants will learn how to: capture learner’s attention; motivate learners; engage management; measure success; and adapt ideas to their own organizations. (45 minutes)

  • K Rudolph often presents at the FISSEA conference. In addition to longer presentations, K has given pecha kucha talks at the FISSEA conference. A pecha kucha (pronounced peh-chak-cha) is a concise presentation in the format of a slide show of 20 slides, each shown for 20 seconds.
  • K presented Tales from the Cryptolocker at the US Customs and Border Patrol office in Washington DC on September 15, 2015. She also presented The Biggest Secrets of Security Awareness at the CSI SX (The Computer Security Institute Security Exchange) Conference at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Hotel in Las Vegas, April 27, 2008.
