What’s the impact of internal phishing simulations?

Simulations measure vulnerability: baseline testing reveals how many employees would fall for phishing without training. Results guide program development and demonstrate risk to leadership.

Training effectiveness: comparing pre and post-training simulation results shows improvement. Ongoing simulations maintain awareness and identify areas needing additional focus.

Cultural impact: regular simulations normalize security consciousness. Employees become more cautious and more likely to report suspicious messages. The process itself is educational beyond individual test results.
