Human Factor Security

Social Engineering

Comprehensive human factor security testing to identify vulnerabilities in your organization's human defenses and improve security awareness.

About This Service

Our social engineering testing service evaluates your organization's human security factors through realistic attack simulations. We test employee susceptibility to phishing, vishing, pretexting, and physical social engineering attacks to identify vulnerabilities and improve security awareness. This comprehensive approach helps build a security-conscious culture while reducing the risk of successful human-based attacks that are often the starting point for major security breaches.
