How do companies train employees against phishing?
Security awareness programs combine education and simulation. Training explains phishing techniques, recognition signs, and proper response. Simulated phishing tests provide practical experience identifying real attacks.
Effective programs include: regular training updates (threats evolve), simulated attacks measuring vulnerability, immediate feedback when employees fail tests, positive reinforcement for reporting, and metrics tracking improvement over time.
Training alone isn't sufficient but significantly reduces risk. Organizations with mature awareness programs see substantially lower successful phishing rates. Combined with technical controls, training creates layered defense.
