Email Phishing Test For Employees
We build a security culture which is part of your companies’ fabric.
How to protect Your Business from Phishing Attacks?
To safeguard your business from phishing scams, it is crucial to foster a culture centered on robust Cyber Security protocols. Your employees should receive regular training to identify critical fraudulent tactics and suspicious emails.
While phishing attacks may not always be readily discernible, staff should exercise caution when encountering psychological techniques that induce a sense of fear or urgency. They should also exercise prudence before opening email attachments, downloading software, or clicking on links within emails.
Our service empowers you to assess and bolster your workforce through realistic cyber attack simulations, identifying those who may unwittingly interact with the simulated emails.
Did you know that over 70% of computer infections (malware/ransomware) are a result of users introducing the attack onto their computer?

Our process
The first stage is to benchmark your users against a 3-phase phishing simulation. Each phase becomes progressively more targeted and plausible. From this we can create a baseline to measure from and to track the continued success of the service.
Using our advanced reporting, we will be able to track each user’s ability to spot phishing emails. We will also look at elements like how long users take to instigate the online training and how engaged they are with the process.
Dry, humdrum training will be a thing of the past. Our learning programme provides fresh and immersive training to challenge your team to develop. To help put cyber-risks in relatable narratives, our interactive games, quizzes, videos and onsite sessions can be tailored to your business and policies.
We do not stop at training. We analyse the data gathered to establish a tailored development plan which seeks to improve and measure your cyber-maturity over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
As social engineering attacks ramp up in prevalence and sophistication, security awareness training should not be a ‘tick-box’ exercise hosted on an annual basis. To out-pace these cyber-criminals, regular awareness training should be embedded into your corporate-wide procedures for all staff to take part in. It should also be integrated into your new-starter onboarding process. This allows new employees to get up-to-speed on security best practice from the offset.
In our experience, we find that a blend of both face-to-face training, and e-learning sessions produce the highest engagement rate.
E-learning is a great way to regularly reinforce security awareness with fun games, videos and quizzes.
Our onsite sessions are interactive and build on key learning from the online sessions. We encourage your team to voice their concerns and help them put cyber-risks in the context of your business.
