We live in an absolutely online world, with almost everything we do connected to the internet in some way or another. It’s as ubiquitous as electricity. And similarly, most of us don’t really think about how it all actually works, or what it takes to keep these complex systems running smoothly and safely.
But unlike electricity, you can’t flip a light switch at your office in such a way that it unlocks every door in the building and bankrupts your entire company.
This is where the cybersecurity industry comes in.
However, a big part of having excellent cybersecurity is knowledge and awareness– not just for the IT geniuses, but for every employee and customer.
And right away, that leads to another huge challenge.
For B2Cs, it’s hard to deliver these crucial messages to your customers who are already overwhelmed with a daily onslaught of information in their busy daily lives.
And for B2Bs, it’s equally tricky to grab the attention of your customers, vendors and partners with your offering; and once you have it, to be able to explain solutions that are, by their very nature, technically complex.
Either way, it becomes a problem of messaging. Make your message too short and simple, and you risk watering it down to the point that it becomes meaningless. Go into too much detail, and you risk overwhelming or boring your audience with too much information.
This is where animated storytelling comes in to save the day.
Here’s how.
The true power of animated video comes in its unique ability to grab and hold the viewer’s attention better than images, sound, or text.
And, hold their attention while delivering an engaging message that stays fresh in their memory for a long time afterward, even after just one viewing.
It’s especially effective in explaining complex topics in-depth, going into detail without losing the viewer’s interest or attention, in a way that no other format that currently exists can accomplish.
And what topic is more critically important and in need of explaining, than cybersecurity today?
The best cyber security videos can break down even the most complex concepts and cybersecurity topics into easy to understand bite-sized videos with beautiful animation, and most importantly, build trust with the viewer.
This amazing format is useful for everything from marketing and advertising that can drive powerful conversions, to cyber security video training for employees. In fact, you’ll see several fantastic cybersecurity training videos in the examples below!
Still not convinced about what animated video storytelling can do for the cybersecurity industry?
Then don’t take our word for it. Check out this selection of our favorite animated videos on cybersecurity from the best of the best and see for yourself!
It’s hard to communicate aspects of cybersecurity trends since they involve things you cannot see and touch, like data, viruses, software and so on.
People have a clear image in their minds when they hear about, say, a burglary or theft, where someone breaks in and steals physical objects.
But talk about hacking, firewalls, etc. and most people’s minds go blank.
Especially key decision-makers who are not always computer-savvy.
This is where animation really excels because it can depict the real world, but it can also conjure up more abstract and creative imagery that can better describe and explain things that are not physical.
Like this video for Kaspersky, for example.
With a creative license and a sharp script, it brings to life the reality of cybersecurity and its importance to any business of any size.
This animated cyber security explainer video for AT&T takes a similar approach.
It brings to stark reality the nature of the risks that you work so hard to protect against.
The high-tech visual style subtly underscores the technical complexity of the work you do and presents AT&T’s Threat Manager as the heroic savior that every company needs to stay safe from cyber threats.
It’s tricky enough explaining cybersecurity to your audience when it comes to securing their computers and data.
And it’s an order of magnitude explaining cybersecurity in the cloud.
You could have the safest system in-house, but all that changes once your data goes into the cloud where it’s pretty much out of your hands.
Fortunately, CrowdStrike created an innovative solution to address this exact set of problems.
But how to explain this technology to the general public?
They opted to use an animated explainer video on cybersecurity to talk about the risks and what they do to mitigate them and keep their customers' data safe, whether it’s local or up in the cloud.
The information age is all about out-of-the-box, disruptive innovation.
And Stackpath’s approach to cybersecurity in this video made by Epipheo is no different.
Rather than “bolting on” more and more protocols and systems to secure data, their idea was to build it right with clever solutions that communicate with each other and work together.
Cool idea, but how do you explain all this in a way that holds the audience’s attention?
If you make it too simple, the explanation falls flat and nothing of substance is communicated.
If you go too in-depth, it can bore and overwhelm even the viewers who are familiar with information security.
Epipheo created this clever video that explains cybersecurity thoroughly enough without losing the audience’s interest or overwhelming them with too much information, using a blend of a well-written script and interesting visuals to tell their story.
The internet never sleeps, and the risks never abate.
The solution isn’t to throw ever more resources at security, but to work smart, not just hard.
That was the idea behind CrowdStrike Falcon. It sounds deceptively simple, but it’s anything but.
However, to explain how this solution really works without losing the audience’s attention, CrowdStrike once again turned to animation to help tell their story– to great effect!

Not all cybersecurity videos need to use raging colors and cliches to get the point across.
This video for The Centre for Cybersecurity made by Timeline takes infographic animation to the next level with stunning visuals and slick transitions.
The highlight of this video is its primary use of black and white color and contrasting colors that set it apart from the crowd, and bring out the storytelling in a clever and unique way.
It engages viewers right from the start so they watch the video till the end (and seeing this video ourselves, we can’t really blame them).
Out of the many 3D animation videos we have seen and created for our clients, nothing stands out more that this animated cybersecurity video for Northwave Security made by the good folks at Mitsi.
The video is entirely made with fluid 3D animations and photorealistic colors and textures, reminiscent of modern video games.
But here’s the interesting part–the video has still managed to keep its core message intact.
The way the video presents its offering simply and uses the 3D animations to bring the point home is, in our opinion, the best use of animation we have ever seen.
This clever cybersecurity cartoon is made by Andrew Alder and we’re honestly kind of blown away.
This video is made as a concept art to spread awareness about cybersecurity and why it’s important in this digital age.
The background music, colors, visuals, and pacing work well together to portray a message (which is impressive for a video that doesn’t have a voiceover)
There are very few animated explainer videos we have seen that implement the use of 2D motion graphics with such perfection.
This animated cybersecurity video made by Nucco Brain for XQ does a great job of weaving core messaging so elegantly.
The use of animations, coupled with the voiceover, greatly simplifies XQ’s cybersecurity offering.
Note how it seamlessly blends symbols and abstract shapes with real-world computer interfaces and devices to tell its story. It may look simple but a lot of thought and creativity went into this.
If you were to ask us, this video checks all the boxes for the perfect explainer video.
Not every cybersecurity video should have a serious vibe to it.
Sometimes having fun with your messaging can put the viewers at ease.
And that’s exactly what Martin Thoburn did for Duo Security by delivering their offering in the form of a cartoon.
The cartoon animations do a great job of portraying fun elements in the video without sacrificing the core messaging.
This goes on to show how animated videos can leverage storytelling to simplify offerings and convey the right messages to the right audience.
What do you get when you combine funny character animations with a serious message?
You get this animated cybersecurity awareness video made by STOEMP.
The video is pretty straightforward and clever enough, that’s the whole point all along.
The way it has executed a serious message about cybersecurity while keeping the overall vibe of the video fun and cheerful is simply flawless.
Attivo wanted to explain how their endpoint defence and cyber-deception platform closes gaps traditional security tools miss. The challenge? Show a complex attacker journey—lateral movement, privilege escalation—without overwhelming the viewer.
So we delivered a slick animated explainer video that blends 2D and 3D graphic elements, using icons and dynamic motion to illustrate how threats flow through networks and how Attivo intercepts them. The result: a high-impact piece that keeps the viewer engaged and makes a technical service feel clear, understandable and trusted.
