CREATE A CULTURE OF SECURITY Educate Your Employees With Fake Phishing Attacks
As we’ve mentioned before, the weakest link in a company’s network security chain is a lack of employee awareness. You can have the most robust protection available, but that won’t mean anything if one of your team members allows a hacker to get in.

Here’s how it works: We send your staff emails that resemble the latest phishing attacks, but without any real damage done to your systems. If any employee falls for these attacks, they are immediately notified that they’ve been tricked.
