What is involved in Security Awareness Engagement?
Phishing Simulation: The Digital Stress Test
A phishing simulation is a controlled cyberattack. We send realistic but harmless emails to your employees to see how they respond to common tactics used by real-world hackers.
How it works: We craft emails that mimic real world phishing attacks, implementing current techniques that threat actors attempt. If an employee clicks a link or enters credentials, they aren’t punished; instead, they receive immediate, “just-in-time” training on what red flags they missed.
The Goal: To transform your employees from your biggest security risk into your strongest line of defense.
Key Benefits:
Reduce Human Error: Training the “human firewall” to recognize social engineering before a real attack occurs.
Measurable Progress: You get hard data on click rates and reporting rates, allowing you to track security improvement over time.
Safe Learning Environment: It allows staff to make mistakes in a safe setting where the only consequence is a learning opportunity, rather than a data breach.
Physical Assessment: Testing the Perimeter
A physical assessment (or “Physical Pen Test”) evaluates how well your business is protected against unauthorized person-to-person or physical entry. It answers the question: Can a stranger walk into your office and steal a laptop or plug a device into your network? Our specialists attempt to gain access to your facility using a variety of tactics.
The Goal: To ensure that digital security isn’t bypassed by a simple physical intrusion.
Key Benefits:
Identify “Blind Spots”: Highlights gaps in badge systems, security cameras, or employee habits.
Protect Tangible Assets: Secure not just data, but hardware, proprietary prototypes, and printed confidential information.
Infuse Security into Culture: Encourage employees to speak up when they see someone without a badge or someone they don’t recognize in restricted areas.
