Ethical Phishing Tests
We conduct ethical phishing tests to identify vulnerabilities in your security systems and raise your team's awareness of digital threats.
Phishing remains the leading vector behind nearly all ransomware attacks and corporate breaches. Knowing in theory that you shouldn't "click on suspicious emails" isn't the same as recognizing one under pressure on a Tuesday at 4 PM. Ethical simulations measure reality with evidence, without real consequences, and provide data you can act on.
What's included?
- Realistic phishing attack simulations.
- Assessment of your employees' response to suspicious emails.
- Detailed reports with recommendations to improve security.
- Immediate learning page for employees who fall for the simulation.
- Escalated campaigns: easy → intermediate → advanced to measure progress.
- Coordination with management and HR for ethical handling of results.
Ideal for
Companies that have already trained their team in security and want to measure effectiveness, organizations that must demonstrate awareness training controls for regulatory compliance (ISO 27001, SOC 2), and businesses that suspect their team is vulnerable but need objective evidence to prioritize investment in training.
How we work
We coordinate the ethical scope with management and HR (educational, not punitive, objectives), define the email templates (plausible topics for your industry) and the execution window. Platforms like GoPhish, King Phisher, or enterprise tools run the campaign in a controlled manner. Results are delivered anonymized by group (not by individual publicly) with a focus on corrective actions, not on exposing people.
Frequently asked questions
Is it legal to run phishing tests against my own team?
Yes, when it's authorized by company management with a formal authorization letter. It's part of security programs accepted globally. What is NOT legal is running it without written authorization. We require that document before starting and work under clear ethical rules (no public exposure of individuals, focus on learning).
What happens to employees who fall for it?
At the moment of the click, they see a learning page explaining what the simulation was, what warning signs were in the email, and how to recognize it next time. Individual-level results remain confidential between the employee and HR — no lists are published. At the aggregate level, management sees trends by area to focus training.
How much does the result improve with training?
Teams without prior training typically have click rates of 20-40%. After focused training and 2-3 simulation cycles, it drops to 5-10%. More importantly, the "report" rate rises (employees who receive the email and report it to IT), which is the most operationally useful metric.
