I constantly experience connectivity errors


I don't see any training assignments

  • Check User Management to see if a duplicate account has been created
    • If there is a duplicate account, deactivate one of the accounts
    • If you are using SCIM, the participant's email address for SSO and Active Directory could be mismatched. Confirm the email address being used to sign-in is the same email address in Active Directory. If it is not, you have two options:
      • Update their SSO (SAML name ID) to match what is in User Management

      • Update their email in Active Directory to match what they use to login

  • If they received a notification, verify it was received by the same email address the end user is using to log in. If not, check User Management detailed in step above.
  • Review a full screenshot of their dashboard and URL to confirm if assignments have loaded:
    • If the campaign is complete along with the message "You have no completed assignments yet" pictured here:
      • Then a security tool, browser error, or browser extension is blocking content loading
        • Ask the user to open in an incognito window.
          • If content loads, the block is likely on their local machine. Ensure they do not have any ad blockers or other extensions that might be interfering. Consult with your IT department for further troubleshooting / allowlisting.
          • If content doesn't load, direct your IT department to review whether there are local or regional network and endpoint policies that may differ from the broader company-wide allowlist already in place. In some cases, SSL inspection, ad-blockers, or iframe/security restrictions can vary by office location, VPN profile, or even device-level configuration.
    • If a name different than what is in User Management, or their email address is appearing instead of their name, there is a disconnect with User Provisioning
      • If using SCIM or Just in Time, please review mapping and the user's record for errors
  • Verify the user should have assignments
    • Confirm user is in the audience tied to the campaign
    • If the user was added to an already launched campaign
      • Verify the campaign is dynamic
      • Review this article to ensure you added the user correctly
    • If the Campaign is Specific Dates, user will receive assignments scheduled for the day they joined and onward unless "assign past content" was toggled on in Campaign Builder before the user joined the campaign
  • Confirm our site or hosted assets are not being blocked for the user

Still can't resolve?

  • Submit support request with:
    • Full sized screen shots / screen recording of the above
    • Company name, end user name and email address
    • Campaign details
      • Provide Campaign name and Audience name
      • Expected content on dashboard - i.e. Day 1 content. Security Made Simple
      • Confirm if notifications are enabled
    • If added to an active campaign, detail how you added, and order of your steps

Where do I login?

  • If your organization is SSO-enabled then the application may be accessed via a tile or application dock, else access via app.livingsecurity.com.

I use SSO and I can't log in

  • Confirm they are taken to your authentication screen after entering their email address
    • If they are not taken to your authentication screen, ensure their email domain entered correctly, and is included in domains for your SSO connection
  • Confirm user is in User Management
  • Confirm the end user is assigned to the SSO application within your IdP
  • Ensure they are accessing through appropriate tile or directly at app.livingsecurity.com

Still can't resolve?


I don’t use SSO and can’t log in

  • Confirm user's email address is an allowed domain
  • Confirm user is in User Management with an Active status
  • Reset the password in User Management
  • Go to app.livingsecurity.com in an Incognito/InPrivate window and submit a password reset with the end user's email address

Still can't resolve?


I already completed my training but received a notification that it is still due or past due

  • Verify the notification is received by the same email address the end user is using to login
    • If the notification is received by a different email address, you will need to deactivate one of the accounts, keeping the one used for authentication.
      • If you are using SCIM, the participant's email address for SSO and Active Directory could be mismatched. Confirm the email address being used to sign-in is the same email address in Active Directory. If it is not, you have two options:
        • Update their SSO (SAML name ID) to match what is in User Management
        • Update their email in Active Directory to match what they use to login
  • Verify the date of the email notification is after the end user's completion date
  • Check real time participant analytics (expanded drop down) to confirm completion
  • Have the end user view their leaderboard points which captures all completions
    • If that shows completion, please request a screenshot.
    • If that does not show completion, then a completion has not been captured.
      • Ask the end user to open the training to ensure they progressed through the last asset (ie video progressed to the end), and clicked the COMPLETE button at the end.
      • Ask the end user to complete the training again.

Still can't resolve?

How do I know that I’ve completed all of my assignments?

  • Direct end user to their dashboard

The training video keeps getting stuck, won't load or subtitles won't appear

    • Whitelisting completed for end user's network
  • If this is occurring amongst the majority of end users, submit a support request with:
    • Full sized screen shots / screen recording of the above

Captions are not appearing or have disappeared

      • Review browser troubleshooting steps with end user 
      • Ask the user to open in an incognito window.
        • If captions load, the block is likely on their local machine. Ensure they do not have any ad blockers or other extensions that might be interfering. Consult with your IT department for further troubleshooting / allowlisting.
