Case Study: GEM Oils (Ireland’s leading lubricant provider) achieves a risk‑aware cyber security culture with MetaCompliance

Fuelling a Culture of Cyber Security Awareness

GEM Oils, Ireland’s leading provider of high-quality lubricants, faced a rising cyber risk as the oil and gas sector digitised and employees were targeted by a surge in phishing attacks. Seeking to make cyber security everyone’s responsibility rather than just an IT issue, GEM Oils partnered with MetaCompliance and adopted MetaCompliance’s eLearning platform—using Elements, Nano short courses and tailored modules—to deliver bite-sized, role-specific awareness training.

MetaCompliance implemented short, engaging Nano courses, a tailored eLearning library and reporting tools that let GEM Oils track completion rates and campaign engagement. The solution enabled a hybrid awareness programme (blogs, posters, screensavers and courses), gave management clear insight via reporting, and led to measurable improvements in staff vigilance and overall cyber awareness across the organisation.
