Phishing recognition
Spotting the linguistic, contextual, and technical tells of a phishing email — even sophisticated ones.
Cyber Security · Human Layer
82% of breaches involve a human element. Managed, bite-sized training and realistic phishing simulations turn your team into a security asset — with reporting your board will actually read.
The Human Layer
The vast majority of successful attacks — over 80% by most industry counts — involve a human element. A phishing click, a credential handed over on a fake login page, a supplier invoice scam that bypasses purchase controls.
No technical control fully compensates for human judgement. Security awareness training builds the instinct to slow down and check, and phishing simulations keep that instinct sharp.
Our program is delivered as a managed service: monthly modules, realistic simulations, teaching moments in place of blame, and dashboards your board can actually read.

Monthly 3-5 minute video modules delivered to each user, followed by realistic phishing simulations that mirror current attack techniques. Users who fall for a simulation get an immediate teaching moment, not punishment. Managers get dashboards showing team-level and individual progress.
They're modelled on real, current attack campaigns — fake DocuSign notifications, HR benefits emails, invoice scams, Teams messages. We can also run branded simulations that reference your actual vendors, projects, and internal terminology (with your approval) for higher realism.
Yes — dashboards show clicks, credential submissions (in a safe honeypot), and reporting rates per user, team, and location. Reports are safe for HR use because they focus on capability development, not blame.
Setup is typically completed within a week. Users receive a welcome module, then the monthly cadence begins. The first phishing simulation runs in month one to establish a baseline click rate, which we then reduce over the following 6-12 months.
