Red Team and Adversary Simulation
Social Engineering Testing
We test your human and process controls with phishing, phone, and help desk scenarios. We show what access an attacker could gain through your staff.
What it is
A social engineering test simulates, in a controlled way, attacks that target people and business processes instead of technical controls. Scenarios are based on your organization's real workflows. The test measures whether verification steps in the process work, not individual mistakes. Results provide concrete examples for awareness training and process changes.
Scope
- Targeted phishing email simulations
- Password reset and MFA device change requests to the help desk
- Fake payment instructions and supplier account change scenarios targeting the finance team
- Phone scenarios requesting information or access
- Speed of reporting suspicious messages and how the reporting process works
The need
When organizations need it
- When your annual penetration test covers systems but has not tested the people and processes around them.
- After a fraud attempt such as a fake payment instruction or an urgent request in the name of an executive.
- When you want to measure if awareness training has actually changed behavior.
Method
How we work
-
Scenario approval
We define the scenarios, target groups, and boundaries with you in writing.
-
Preparation
We prepare credible and harmless scenarios that fit your organization's real workflows.
-
Execution
We execute the scenarios on the approved schedule and record all interactions.
-
Process review
We report which verification steps worked and which were skipped, without naming individuals.
Outcome
What you have at the end
You know in which processes a verification step was skipped and how quickly suspicious messages were reported. You have concrete examples for process changes and role-based training needs.
Frequently asked questions
Do employees' names appear in the report?
No. Results are reported by department and role. The aim is to improve processes, not individuals.
What happens to passwords entered during the simulation?
Scenarios are set up so that passwords are not stored. Only the attempt itself is recorded.
How often should it be done?
The first test provides a baseline. Repeating with different scenarios after training shows changes in behavior.
