DeltaNet International has announced
the availability of its Phishing Simulator, to help organizations strengthen their
cybersecurity awareness training against phishing attacks. This solution
enables organizations to assess the effectiveness of their cybersecurity education,
diagnosing vulnerabilities and identifying urgent skills gaps through realistic
phishing simulations.
The phishing simulation tool can be used simply to test the susceptibility of
an organization from falling victim to a phishing attack, but when combined
with follow-up training to close knowledge and risk gaps, users can experience
true added value. The simulator allows users to choose from a carefully curated
selection of phishing email templates, or create new templates specifically for
their campaign and fully customize the software based on their brand and
requirements. Available direct or through resellers, users can simulate
targeted spear-phishing attacks, such as clicking on malicious URLs, and
requests for personal information and passwords. The tool is delivered through
the intelligent learning experience platform, Astute, which also
makes it easy for businesses to deploy refresher eLearning to employees who
‘fail’ the phishing simulation through its cloud-based platform.
“Regardless of size, every organization is under threat of phishing attacks and
with the headlines constantly announcing the latest breach, it’s high time
cybersecurity awareness training became a priority for all employees. All it
takes is one click on a malicious link, and it could open your organization to
a cyberattack,” said Darren Hockley, Managing Director at DeltaNet
International. “By simulating an attack, you can test the resilience of the
employees within your organization and then quickly deploy focused training to
those employees that need it. This builds organizational resilience to
cybersecurity risks and can continually be assessed and measured through
multiple campaigns.”
Benefiting from high-quality eLearning and a breadth of cybersecurity awareness
training courses, users of DeltaNet International’s Phishing Simulator can
automatically enroll participants who failed the phishing test onto any courses
via Astute, or access other company policy documents and eLearning. Business
leaders can measure the effectiveness of the testing by tracking in real-time
how employees have reacted to the fake phishing email, allowing security,
compliance and HR teams to understand where to provide additional support to
mitigate risk and reduce susceptibility to phishing attacks.
“With impersonation phishing attacks becoming increasingly common, we will
additionally be working closely with our users to create highly personalized
templates designed to test the vulnerability of their employees. By
impersonating considerable levels of familiarity, these emails will test even
the most highly aware and vigilant employees, so organizations understand where
to prioritize training,” added Jason Stirland, CTO at DeltaNet International.
