Protection, not paperwork
Compliance is a by-product of doing it well — never the goal. We aim to genuinely change behaviour.
About us
A small crew on a simple mission.
We started SecurityMonkeys because cyber training had become box-ticking theatre — long, dull, and forgotten by Friday. We're a tight team of security veterans and genuinely talented content makers who believe protection works best when people actually enjoy learning it. Targeted, high-quality, and refreshingly human.

What we believe
How we think about your team's training
Short and sharp
Three-minute modules people finish beat thirty-minute ones they skip. Respect for your team's time is the whole strategy.
Tailored, never generic
We teach the threats that actually target your industry — the real lures, named and explained.
The grown-ups
Leadership & operations
Decades of security and business experience keeping the bananas in order.
Marcus Dunn
Co-founder & CEO
Twenty years in cyber defence and a stubborn belief that awareness shouldn't be boring. Sets the vision and still reviews every phishing template personally.
Priya Nair
Co-founder & Managing Director
Ran security awareness programs for some of Australia's biggest employers before co-founding SecurityMonkeys. Obsessed with measurable outcomes.
Daniel Okafor
Chief Technology Officer
Builds the phishing engine and LMS that make the magic feel effortless. Ex-platform engineer who'd rather automate it than do it twice.
Sophie Chen
Chief Information Officer
Keeps our own house in order — data, privacy and security come first when you ask clients to trust you. Lives and breathes the Essential Eight.
Bianca Rossi
Operations & Office Manager
The reason everything actually happens on time. Onboards new clients, herds the troop, and somehow keeps everyone caffeinated.
Tom Whitfield
Finance & Accounts Manager
Handles the numbers so the founders don't have to. Believes a fair, simple price is a feature — and makes sure ours stays that way.
The talent
The content crew
The young, scarily creative team turning dry security advice into things people actually watch and share.
Zoe Nguyen
Lead Content Creator
Turns "don't click suspicious links" into something you'll remember. Storyteller first, security nerd a close second.
Jayden Brooks
Video Producer
Shoots and edits the micro-videos that make modules fly by. Allergic to corporate stock footage.
Aisha Rahman
Social & Comms Lead
Runs the "Monkey of the Month" tips and keeps awareness alive between campaigns, one sharp post at a time.
Liam Patel
Instructional Designer
Makes sure every module actually teaches something — built on learning science, not guesswork.
Mia Caruso
Scriptwriter & Copywriter
Writes the words that make people smile and stay safe. Proof that "compliance copy" doesn't have to be a punishment.
Noah Kim
Motion & Graphic Designer
The reason our animations feel premium, not PowerPoint. Brings the monkeys to life, frame by frame.
