Know exactly where your real risk lies

Most successful cyber-attacks start with a single convincing email. You can tell your team to stay alert, but until you test them, you have no idea how they would actually react when a real phishing message lands in their inbox on a busy Monday morning.

Our phishing simulations send safe, realistic test emails to your staff and measure exactly how they respond. You get a clear picture of your risk, we identify who would benefit from extra support, and every click becomes a supportive moment of learning - never a punishment. It's the perfect partner to our cyber security staff training.

What our phishing simulation delivers

Every campaign is built around the threats your people are most likely to face and designed to educate, not embarrass. Here's what you get.

Realistic Campaigns

Convincing but completely harmless test emails modelled on the real scams targeting UK businesses - from fake invoices to delivery notices and password resets.

Clear Reporting

Simple, jargon-free reports showing click rates, who is most at risk and how resilience is improving over time - hard numbers you can act on and share.

Teachable Moments

When someone clicks, they see a friendly page explaining the warning signs they missed - turning a mistake into instant, memorable learning.

Tailored Difficulty

We start with realistic baseline tests and gradually increase sophistication as your team improves, keeping everyone sharp against evolving tactics.

A Blame-Free Culture

No naming and shaming. Everything is designed to build confidence and encourage staff to report suspicious emails, not to catch people out.

Compliance Evidence

Ongoing simulations demonstrate due diligence under UK GDPR and satisfy cyber insurers, giving you documented proof that you actively test your defences.

A simple cycle that reduces risk

Phishing simulation works best as an ongoing programme, not a one-off. We build it into a repeatable cycle so your team's resilience keeps improving.

01

Baseline

We run an initial simulated phishing campaign to measure how your team responds today - your honest starting point, with no preparation.

02

Educate

Anyone who clicks gets instant, supportive feedback, and we use the results to guide targeted training where it's needed most.

03

Repeat

Regular campaigns throughout the year, with varied and increasingly sophisticated tactics, keep everyone alert to the latest threats.

04

Report

Clear reporting tracks progress over time, so you can see your risk falling and prove your security culture is improving.

Awareness only sticks when it's tested

People forget most of what they're told within weeks. Phishing simulations keep security front of mind by giving staff safe, real-world practice at spotting attacks - so the right instinct kicks in when a genuine threat arrives.

The results also give you something a training slide never can: hard evidence. You can prove your defences are improving, satisfy your obligations under UK GDPR, and show cyber insurers you actively manage human risk.

  • Measurably lower click rates over time
  • Staff who report suspicious emails with confidence
  • Documented proof of due diligence for insurers and regulators

Phishing simulation FAQs

What is a phishing simulation?

A phishing simulation is a controlled, harmless test in which realistic fake phishing emails are sent to your staff to see how they respond. No one is caught out or punished - the goal is to measure how likely your team is to fall for a real attack, identify who would benefit from extra support, and turn awareness into lasting habits.

Are simulated phishing tests safe?

Yes. The emails look convincing but are completely harmless - they contain no malware and take no destructive action. When someone clicks, they simply see a friendly page explaining the warning signs they missed, turning a mistake into a moment of learning rather than an incident.

How often should we run phishing simulations?

Phishing tactics change constantly, so a single test only shows a snapshot. We recommend an ongoing programme with regular campaigns throughout the year, so awareness stays high, results can be tracked over time, and new threats are reflected as they emerge.

What happens when an employee clicks a simulated phishing email?

Nothing harmful. The click is recorded anonymously in your reporting, and the employee is shown a short, supportive explanation of the clues in the email they missed. There is no blame - the aim is to build confidence, not to catch people out.

How is phishing simulation different from staff training?

Training teaches your team what to look for; simulation tests whether that knowledge holds up under real-world pressure. The two work best together - simulations reveal where risk remains, and targeted training closes those gaps. We often combine both into a single cyber security awareness programme.

How much does phishing simulation cost?

Cost depends on the size of your team and whether you want a one-off baseline test or an ongoing programme with regular campaigns and reporting. Every engagement starts with a free, no-obligation conversation so we can recommend the right approach and give you a clear quote.
