What are the benefits of an attack simulation?

Phishing attack simulations helps to bolster an organisation’s cybersecurity defences and create a more informed and vigilant workforce.
Here are some of the top benefits of running an attack simulation:

  • Enhanced employee awareness. Regular simulations help employees become more adept at identifying phishing emails and other social engineering tactics, reducing the likelihood of falling victim to actual attacks.
  • Reduced risks. Organisations can significantly reduce their risk of data breaches and financial losses when employees can recognise phishing attempts, thereby helping to safeguard sensitive information and intellectual property.
  • Realistic testing. Simulations mimic real-world phishing attacks, providing employees with practical experience in a controlled environment. Employees receive instant feedback on their actions, allowing them to learn from mistakes without real-world consequences.
  • Identification of weaknesses. Simulations can reveal patterns in employee behaviour, highlighting areas where additional training may be needed.
