Kaspersky has introduced a major update to its Automated Security Awareness Platform, adding full support for PDF file formats and the SCORM standard (Sharable Content Object Reference Model)—the global protocol for developing, delivering, and managing e-learning content.

The latest update enables organizations to design customized cybersecurity training programs that align with their IT infrastructure, internal policies, and specific risk profiles. At the same time, companies can leverage Kaspersky’s expert-developed security awareness content, including advanced phishing simulation scenarios.

According to Kaspersky’s report “Redefining the Human Factor in Cybersecurity,” employee interaction with phishing attacks remains one of the leading causes of cyber incidents worldwide, accounting for 21% of reported cases. In addition, a separate Kaspersky study predicts that social engineering attacks will grow faster than other cyber threats, with 87% of survey respondents believing such attacks will become more effective due to the increasing use of artificial intelligence.

The updated platform addresses persistent challenges faced by organizations, including reducing incidents caused by human error, minimizing time spent managing training programs, lowering regulatory compliance risks, and limiting legal or reputational damage resulting from cybersecurity breaches.

With SCORM integration, organizations can now upload, track, and manage their existing SCORM-based learning materials directly within the platform. Support for PDF files also allows companies to rapidly deploy training content using easily created documents.

This flexible approach enables organizations to tailor cybersecurity education to emerging threats targeting their industry or region. Businesses that previously invested in third-party SCORM courses or internally developed content can seamlessly reuse existing materials—protecting prior investments while strengthening their overall cybersecurity posture.
