Awareness Training

Defend Your Business Against Social-Engineering Attacks

Fight phishing and other potentially devastating attacks that can slip through security gateways. These evolving and sophisticated attack techniques, designed to fool employees, put your business at risk for data loss, financial fraud, and embarrassing exposure. Transform employees into a layer of defense with Barracuda PhishLine.

With PhishLine, you guard against every facet of social-engineering threats with continuous simulation and training for employees. Expose them to the latest attack techniques, and teach them to recognize the subtle clues and help stop email fraud, data loss, and brand damage. Embed learning into your everyday business processes with customized simulations that test and reinforce good behavior.

Only PhishLine helps you guard against a range of threats with patented, highly-variable attack simulations for multiple vectors, including phishing, smishing, vishing, and found physical media.

PhishLine’s simulation and training content is easy to use and is fully customizable. You get a wide variety of materials: Choose from hundreds of easy-to-use simulation templates, landing pages, risk assessment surveys, and engaging multi-lingual training content in the online PhishLine Content Center Marketplace™. Materials can be used individually or integrated into simulated phishing and social-engineering campaigns. New simulation and training content is added daily, to reflect the most recent threats and training resources available to help protect your business.

PhishLine lets you deliver training as soon as the need is identified, using a built-in workflow engine. For example, you can use a landing page for in-the-moment training when someone performs an unsafe action as part of a mock phishing campaign. You can also send training invitations to specific employees based on their past actions and risk profile. Plus, you can schedule training invitations and post on-demand training on your intranet.

PhishLine makes it easy for employees to instantly report suspicious emails to your help desk or incident response team. The built-in Phish Reporting Button is a simple, powerful solution that gives you complete control over the entire process at all times.

 

The Sender: Do you recognize the name, address, and domain? If not, be suspicious.

The Message: Does the email evoke an emotion, such as concern, desire, or curiosity? We suspend disbelief when we experience emotion, and phishing emails use this against us.

The Report: What does the message want you to do? Click a link? Download an attachment? Do neither until you are confident of the message’s legitimacy.
