The security ad template that leads with threat and closes with resolution.
Built from real briefs security marketers write: paste your product URL or screen recording, name the threat, and generate a tight 30-second motion-graphics ad.
What this template is
A cybersecurity ad video template is a reusable prompt and scene structure for producing 30-second (or 45-55 second) security SaaS ads in the threat-to-resolution format. The user provides a product URL or screen recording, names the threat scenario and the audience, and ngram generates a motion-graphics ad — dark aesthetic, fast cuts, confident resolution beat — without a production team. It covers MSP platforms, phishing simulation tools, identity products, VPN services, and any security SaaS that sells on fear-to-confidence.
The template prompt
Copy it, fill the slots in brackets, and paste it into ngram — or hit "Use this template" to open the editor with it prefilled.
Create a [duration]-second cybersecurity ad for [product-name], a [product-category] for [audience]. Open with a stark, fast-paced depiction of [threat-scenario] — no product yet, just the danger. Cut to [product-name] detecting or resolving it: show the real UI or a clean motion-graphic of the resolution. Narrate with urgency, then confidence. End on the logo with the line [cta]. Visual style: [visual-style]. Aspect ratio: [aspect-ratio]. If I attach a screen recording, use it for the resolution scenes; otherwise generate clean UI motion graphics from my product URL.
| Slot | What to put | Example |
|---|---|---|
| [product-name] | Your product name | VaultSentry |
| [product-category] | What it is, plainly | MSP-targeted threat detection platform |
| [audience] | Who sees the ad | IT managers at 50-500 person companies |
| [threat-scenario] | The opening danger you depict | a phishing email landing in an employee inbox |
| [duration] | Target length in seconds | 30 |
| [cta] | Closing line on the logo card | Stop the breach before it starts. |
| [visual-style] | Aesthetic direction | dark navy, glitch transitions, sharp UI callouts |
| [aspect-ratio] | Output format | 16:9 for YouTube pre-roll |
What the template builds
Four beats, 30 seconds. The shape most security ad briefs converge on.
- 1
Threat open
7sThe attack lands before the product appears. Fast cuts: a suspicious email, a login alert, an exfiltration progress bar. Text-only — no logo, no product name. The viewer feels the risk.
- 2
Detection moment
8sThe product catches it. A dashboard lights up, an alert fires, the attack vector closes. Real UI or clean motion graphics from the product URL. The pacing tightens.
- 3
Resolution proof
10sThe threat is neutralized. One metric or one clear outcome: blocked, quarantined, flagged. Narration shifts from urgent to confident. Tone drop signals that the product is in control.
- 4
Logo + CTA
5sLogo holds on a dark card. The closing line runs in the brand typeface. Calm, not loud. The viewer knows exactly what to do next.
Make it yours
Duration
30 seconds is the modal request for paid channels; 45-55 seconds for Reels or organic LinkedIn where the hook can breathe.
Narration
Voiceover works for pre-roll and CTV. Captions-only is standard for social feeds where autoplay is muted.
Visual style
Dark navy with UI callouts fits the high-trust enterprise security-console aesthetic most security brands aim for. Realistic uses your actual screen recording with minimal overlays.
Aspect ratio
Match the channel: 16:9 for YouTube/CTV pre-roll, 9:16 for Reels and TikTok, 1:1 for LinkedIn feed.
Common variations
Social glitch cut (LinkedIn / X)
30 seconds with fast glitch transitions between the threat and resolution beats. Built for paid social where the first 3 seconds have to stop the scroll.
Add glitch transitions between the threat and resolution beats. Lead with the single most alarming frame from the threat scenario in the first 2 seconds.
Hook-pain-solution Reel (45-55s)
Opens with a hook question, spends more time on the pain context before the product appears. Works for organic Reels where the algorithm rewards watch-through rate.
Extend to 50 seconds. Add a 5-second hook question before the threat depiction. Give the pain beat 15 seconds before cutting to the product.
8-scene storyboard cut (VPN / network product)
For products with a geographic or network narrative: data at risk, geo-block, secure connection established. Each scene is one beat of the journey.
Structure as 8 scenes: data-risk open, geo-block, encryption-in-transit, secure-connection confirmation, outcome metric, logo CTA. Narrate each scene transition.
No-voiceover captioned version
Same ad with text captions replacing the voiceover track. Runs muted on LinkedIn and X without losing the narrative.
Remove the voiceover. Replace with on-screen captions that carry the full script. Keep the background music.
