Social engineering testing assesses an organization's vulnerability to human manipulation.
Testers simulate attacks like phishing emails or phone calls to gauge employees' susceptibility. Organizations can enhance training and implement effective defenses against social engineering threats by identifying weaknesses.
The three most important benefits of running a social engineering test on your company are:
Identify Vulnerabilities: It helps uncover weaknesses in your human defenses, allowing you to address them before they can be exploited by attackers.
Raise Awareness and Improve Training: It increases employee awareness of social engineering tactics, leading to better security practices and more effective training programs.
Strengthen Incident Response: It tests and refines your incident response strategies, ensuring your team is prepared to handle real threats effectively.
