Train Staff
Hotels don’t lose to “hackers.” They lose to speed: front desk under pressure, managers approving fast, night audit alone, and vendors texting “urgent” requests. OBRYN Guard training makes staff hard to trick, gives them simple decision rules, and logs completion so you can prove responsibility to insurance and audits.
Why hotel training must be different
Hotel staff are trained for service — not fraud detection. Attackers exploit normal behavior: helping guests fast, trusting vendor requests, rushing approvals, sharing logins, and handling urgent emails. Your training system must match hotel reality: short, clear, repeatable, and measured.
- Front desk juggling guests + phone + email
- Managers approving refunds and access quickly
- Night audit working alone with elevated access
- High turnover and inconsistent onboarding
- Phishing that looks like booking changes
- Vendor invoice swaps and payment redirects
- Refund dispute pressure and urgency tricks
- Credential theft then “silent” logins
- Security awareness training exists
- Phishing protections + reporting
- Training completion evidence
- Policies acknowledged and enforced
The training system (what we deploy)
Training is not “a course.” It’s a system: role modules, decision rules, and a reporting habit — tracked for proof.
- Phishing and impersonation patterns
- Refund and invoice scam handling
- Guest data handling (what not to send)
- Login discipline (MFA, passwords, devices)
- Training module catalog
- Completion logs by role
- New hire onboarding records
- Policy acknowledgement logs
- Payment change request → verify out-of-band
- Urgent refund dispute → escalate before action
- Vendor “need access” → confirm owner + window
- Guest data request → confirm identity + limit sharing
