What is Phishing simulation?
Also known as: phishing test, simulated phishing campaign
A phishing simulation is a safe, controlled test phishing email a company sends to its own employees. It shows who would click in a real attack, and whoever clicks immediately gets a short training course.
The point is to measure risk and teach, not to punish. Realistic local scenarios (Georgian couriers, banks and workplace situations), regular campaigns and comparison over time work best.
How to spot it
- Nobody knows the result of the last test
- Everyone gets the same training regardless of risk
What to do
- Send a baseline simulation
- Auto-assign a course to whoever clicks
- Repeat and compare
