Our spear phishing simulation shows how your employees react to phishing emails, so you can offer sufficient training.
Most phishing simulation providers use standardized templates. Guardey uses social engineering to create tailor-made emails that are difficult to separate from the real deal.
Guardey’s reporting buttons for Outlook and Gmail make it easy for employees to flag suspicious emails directly from their inbox. Instead of only tracking click rates, you gain insight into how many people actively report suspicious emails, helping you measure real response behavior.
Reporting is part of the gamified learning experience. By turning reporting into a simple habit, phishing awareness becomes part of everyday work.
A spear phishing simulation is the fastest way to find out how well your team is prepared for a targeted phishing attack based on social engineering.

“Together with the Guardey team, we came up with an email centered around a Christmas gift voucher that we send out every year. I was curious about how our employees would react. It turns out that quite a few employees clicked the phishing link and even entered personal data. This made it clear that we had to start training security awareness.”

“After receiving a lot of phishing emails, we decided to do a phishing test last year to test the cyber awareness of our employees. During this test, we sent fake emails to see how many would click a possibly harmful link. The result? 29.4% did, which was higher than expected. After using Guardey for only a few weeks the scores had improved by 84%.”

Algemeen DirecteurPhishing is a generic cyber attack casting a wide net with generic messages, while spear phishing is a targeted and sophisticated approach. Spear phishing tailors messages to specific individuals or organizations, using personalized information and social engineering. This makes spear phishing much more convincing and likely to succeed.
Absolutely. While spear phishing simulations test your team’s phishing awareness, the right security awareness training helps your team to recognize phishing and take the right actions when confronted with it.
Phishing is the number one cyber threat for all organizations. Many employees tend to overestimate their ability to recognize phishing, which makes them vulnerable to targeted attacks.
