Simulated Phishing Campaigns

Spot Malicious Emails Before Damage Occurs

Phishing emails often bypass standard filters, preying on user trust. Strengthen employee awareness to stop attacks before they compromise critical data and systems.

Simulated phishing campaigns mimic real attack tactics, testing how effectively your staff detect and report suspicious emails. By revealing who’s most at risk, you can target training and implement stronger safeguards. Our tailored scenarios meet different skill levels, ensuring each campaign provides meaningful insights. Ultimately, these exercises help build a proactive defence against new and ever-changing threats, and remain vigilant.

Flexible Targeting and Frequencies

Send simulated attacks across your entire workforce or specific departments, adapting schedules and difficulty levels to sustain ongoing staff preparedness and enhanced resilience.

Phishing campaigns can be deployed in waves, focusing on particular roles or teams most susceptible to social engineering. This targeted approach refines training efforts, ensuring each department receives relevant simulations. By adjusting the frequency and content of campaigns, you maintain a dynamic defence strategy that mirrors the ever-changing tactics of cybercriminals. Ultimately, flexible testing keeps your entire organisation better prepared.

Realistic Staff Testing

Simulate cunning email tactics to measure staff responses, revealing critical vulnerabilities in user awareness.

Customised Scenarios

Target specific departments or job roles with tailored emails, improving relevance and training outcomes.

Actionable Reporting

Track who clicked, entered credentials, or reported the email, fueling vital data-driven security enhancements.

Detailed Metrics and Reporting

Access clear user activity logs, geographic data, and detailed statistical breakdowns, equipping you with invaluable insights for targeted security improvements and future training.

Each campaign produces a report highlighting who opened or clicked emails, submitted credentials, or flagged suspicious messages. Graphs illustrate trends at a glance, while location data reveals potential risk hotspots. By consolidating these metrics in a user-friendly format, you can pinpoint vulnerabilities and celebrate success stories. This level of detail drives data-backed decisions for overall continuous improvement in user awareness.

Elevate Staff Awareness

Regular simulations cultivate a security-focused culture, preparing employees to recognise and report malicious emails that bypass standard protections, drastically reducing potential breach opportunities.

Compared to a full-scale penetration test, automated vulnerability scans offer quicker insights into high-risk areas. This approach is particularly valuable for large or rapidly evolving networks, where manual testing could be costly and time-consuming. By identifying vulnerabilities in software versions or configurations across multiple hosts, you gain a big-picture view of where improvements are needed—faster and at a lower cost.

Recommended Frequency and Best Practices

Schedule regular phishing tests to keep employees vigilant, using realistic scenarios that adapt to changing threats and evolving organisational needs, reinforcing secure habits.

Quarterly or monthly simulations work best for many businesses, though exact frequency depends on your risk profile and regulatory mandates. Increasing complexity over time avoids user fatigue while still challenging staff. Reinforcing lessons with immediate feedback and supplementary training sessions boosts retention. By embedding phishing simulations into ongoing security practices, your team stays sharp and proactive against social engineering dangers.

Advanced Reporting and Post-Campaign Analysis

Use geographic data, user activity logs, and visual metrics to refine future campaigns, ensuring ongoing, measurable improvements in your organisation’s overall defence posture.

After each phishing simulation, we conduct a thorough analysis to pinpoint patterns of risky behaviour and highlight successes. Granular data shows which employees need additional training and which tactics proved most effective. We also offer recommendations for policy updates, revised firewall rules, and ongoing awareness sessions. This full-circle approach ensures every campaign leads to tangible, measurable progress in email security.
