Phishing attacks remain one of the most common entry points for cybercriminals. But this week, we saw something we love to see: clients spotting phishing emails and taking action before any harm was done.
And it’s not just luck — it’s the result of training, simulation, and a stronger cybersecurity culture.
Over the past few months, we’ve been delivering cybersecurity awareness training to users across our client base — helping them:
Understand what phishing is and how it works
Recognise red flags in emails, texts, and links
Report suspicious messages instead of interacting with them
We’ve also been running phishing simulations, which test users in real time with realistic-looking bait. It’s a safe way to see how people respond — and to train them further if they click.
This week’s simulations showed:
✅ Fewer users clicking links in simulated phishing emails
✅ More users reporting suspicious messages through the correct channels
✅ Greater confidence among teams when spotting scams
In one case, a staff member reported a real phishing email within minutes of receiving it — before anyone else had a chance to open it. That’s exactly the behaviour we aim to create.
Technology is critical to cybersecurity, but humans are the first line of defence. If someone clicks a malicious link or enters their login credentials, all the tech in the world might not save them.
But when staff are trained, alert, and confident in their response, the risk drops dramatically.
We support our clients with:
Engaging, non-patronising cybersecurity awareness training
Monthly or quarterly phishing simulations
Easy reporting tools
Follow-up coaching for anyone who clicks
And the best part? It works.
