Social Engineering & Behavioral Awareness
We design realistic social-engineering campaigns and gamified awareness programs, combining phishing, vishing, smishing, pretexting and physical-intrusion testing. We measure real maturity before and after training, with metrics by department and role.

Attack types
We cover the ten social-engineering vectors most used by real adversaries — from mass campaigns to targeted BEC operations with multi-million-dollar losses.
Broad campaigns impersonating banks, platforms or services. Measures the organization's baseline.
Targeted messages personalized to specific employees with prior OSINT. Much higher success rate.
Spear-phishing aimed at C-level executives. Pretexts include board matters, M&A, legal requirements.
Phone calls impersonating IT support, HR or vendors. Increasingly used with AI voice cloning.
SMS / WhatsApp / Telegram with malicious links or fraud instructions. Response rates higher than email.
Building a credible false identity to obtain information: vendor, auditor, authority.
Physical intrusion by following an authorized employee. Combined with uniforms or plausible pretexts.
Infected USB devices left in common areas. Human curiosity remains effective.
Offering something in exchange (tech support, gift, access). Common in help-desk attacks.
Impersonation of an executive or vendor to authorize transfers. The vector with the largest historical financial losses.
All three target people and differ only in channel: phishing arrives by email, vishing by phone call and smishing by text or instant messaging. A complete campaign combines all three because real attackers do too.
Yes, and it is the core of the service. We run controlled campaigns before and after training to compare click rates, credential submission rates and reporting rates to the security team. The most valuable metric is not how many fall, but how many report.
Yes, when the scope covers it. We assess access controls, visitor escorting, physical credential management and how staff react to a stranger inside the facilities.
Results are reported in aggregate and the approach is educational, not punitive. Singling out individuals destroys trust and ensures nobody reports next time, which is the opposite of the goal.
