In today’s online world, phishing attacks have become a common threat. In fact in 2023 it was reported that phishing affected 86% of companies worldwide. As cybercriminals refine their tactics it is essential for organisations to arm their employees with the knowledge and skills needed to recognise and respond to these threats. Luckily, we have an answer – phishing simulations.

What are phishing simulations? 

Phishing simulations mimic real-world phishing emails, enabling organisations to test their employees’ response to potential cyber threats. It has been found that 90% of phishing attacks are successful because of human error2. By exposing employees to realistic scenarios companies can assess their knowledge levels and identify areas for improvement. We have the perfect solution for phishing simulations – Phished. Phished is a security awareness training tool that uses AI to create phishing simulations tailored to the recipient in attempt to catch them out.
