Frequently Asked Questions
Phishing simulations are training exercises designed to mimic real phishing attempts, but in a controlled and secure manner.
These simulations use emails that include typical elements of phishing scams, such as suspicious links and requests for confidential information.
They are important because they train employees to recognize and handle phishing attacks effectively, reducing the likelihood of data breaches, stolen passwords or credit card numbers, phishing and other security risks. By increasing employee awareness and skills, organizations can strengthen their defenses against security vulnerabilities.
These tools help educate employees about phishing tactics and improve preparedness for these attacks. But Apollo, in addition, being a 3-in-1 cybersecurity, human risk and compliance platform, brings all of these benefits:
- Improved cybersecurity posture: Apollo enables companies to identify and fix vulnerabilities in their systems and applications, which helps reduce the risk of being attacked.
- Regulatory compliance: As a compliance platform, it can also accompany companies on their journey to achieve certifications such as ISO 27001.
- Reduced costs: By using Apollo, companies can reduce costs such as the cost they would incur by hiring a large team of security experts or the cost they are exposed to by suffering an attack.
- Increased efficiency: It also improves process efficiency, freeing up time and resources of your team of specialists for other activities.
- Continuous monitoring: Through our integration with Sentinel One, Apollo detects and notifies you when there is a security alert on any of your employees' computers and prevents the spread of malware in your company.
Following the simulation, you can identify areas or users that require additional cybersecurity training, review and strengthen security and incident response policies, including anti-phishing procedures, implement more effective mail filters, and improve information security systems.
- Measures the percentage of employees who clicked on phishing links or responded to spoofed emails.
- Evaluate how many employees correctly reported phishing emails.
- Gather direct feedback from employees on their understanding and perception of the simulations.
- Compare the results of current simulations with previous simulations to measure improvement over time.
- Conduct tests or questionnaires to assess employee understanding of phishing risks and security best practices.
